Looking for a quick and easy dinner that's packed with flavor? Try this Italian-inspired Marsala Chicken Skillet recipe! This dish is perfect for busy weeknights when you want something delicious and satisfying without spending hours in the kitchen.
To make this dish, you'll need boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced mushrooms, garlic, onion, Marsala wine, chicken broth, heavy cream, and a few other simple ingredients. Here's how to make it:
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz sliced mushrooms
- 1/2 cup Marsala wine
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, pepper, and thyme. Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Add the onion, garlic, and mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
4. Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by half.
5. Stir in the heavy cream and return the chicken to the skillet. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is heated through.
6. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
This Italian-inspired Marsala Chicken Skillet is a delicious one-pan meal that's perfect for any night of the week. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the creamy Marsala sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve it with a side of pasta or crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.
