Quick Chicken Marsala

This recipe is quick and reliable. You can whip it up on a week night in 20 minutes or less.

Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or chicken cutlets
3 tbsp butter
3 tbsp olive oil
8 oz portobello mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup marsala wine (can substitute a 1/2 cup mixture of 3 parts chicken broth to 1 part balsamic vinegar)
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Italian seasonings (basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary - whatever you like), to taste

1. Combine flour, salt, pepper, and Italian seasonings. Coat each piece of chicken in the flour mixture.

2. Add butter and olive oil to large sauce pan, over medium heat. Once butter has melted add chicken to the pan. Cook until lightly browned on one side.

3. Turn chicken. Add mushrooms around the chicken. Add marsala wine (or chicken broth/ balsamic combo). Cover and cook another 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked all the way through.

I usually serve this over egg noodles, with a green vegetable like steamed broccoli. But mashed potatoes could be good too!

Serves 3-4 people.
