Chicken Marsala
 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients 

  • 4 skinless chicken breasts
    (5 ounces each)

  • Pepper to taste

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil

  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms

  • 1 garlic clove, minced (about 1 tsp.)

  • 1 tsp. tomato paste

  • 1 ½ cups Marsala wine

  • 1 ½ tbsp. lemon juice

  • 2 Tbsp. soft canola margarine

  • 2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped

 

 

 

 

Directions: 

Heat oven to 200 degrees and place oven-proof plate in oven.

Heat large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Pat chicken breast dry and pound flat to a medium thickness. Sprinkle chicken breasts with pepper. Place flour in pie pan and coat chicken breasts with flour. Shake excess flour off. Add olive oil to heated skillet and heat until oil shimmers.

Place chicken breasts in skillet and cook until brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer cooked chicken to heated plate and place in oven to keep warm. Add mushrooms to skillet and cook until liquid from mushrooms evaporate and mushrooms brown, about 6-8 minutes. Add garlic, tomato paste and sauté until tomato paste browns, about 1 minute. Take skillet off heat and add wine. Return pan to high heat and simmer, stirring until sauce is syrupy and is reduced to 1 ¼ cups - about 5 minutes.

Take pan off heat and add lemon juice. Add margarine and stir until blended. Stir in parsley and add additional pepper if desired. Pour sauce over warmed chicken and serve.
