Instructions For Making Easy Chicken Marsala:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off the excess flour.
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are tender, about 3 minutes.
- Pour in the Marsala wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and let it simmer for another minute to absorb the flavors.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the sauce for richness, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Serve the Chicken Marsala on a plate, spooning the mushroom sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
