Unique Chicken Marsala

Chicken:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour ((plain
flour)) - 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black cracked pepper
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken
breasts, (halved horizontally to make 4 fillets*) - 2 tablespoons olive oil, (divided)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter,
(divided)
Marsala Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (as
needed) - 8 ounces (250g) brown or Cremini
mushrooms, sliced - 4-5 cloves garlic, (minced)
- 3/4 cup dry Marsala wine
- 1 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
((or stock)) - 3/4 cup heavy cream ((thickened
cream, evaporated milk or half and half may also be used)**) - 2 tablespoons fresh chopped
parsley
- Mix the flour, salt, garlic powder
and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and shake
off excess. - Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 2
tablespoons butter in a 12-inch pan or skillet over medium-high heat until
shimmering. Fry 2 of the chicken breasts until golden-brown on both sides
(about 3 to 4 minutes per side). Transfer to warm plate, tent with foil and
keep warm. - Repeat the same with the remaining
2 chicken breasts. - In the same pan with remaining pan
grease leftover from the chicken, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the
mushrooms and for 2-3 minutes until browned, scraping away at any of the
leftover chicken bits off the bottom of the pan. - Add the garlic and cook until
fragrant, about 1 minute. - Pour in the Marsala and the broth
and simmer until reduced by half and starting to thicken, (about 10-15
minutes). - Pour in the cream and return the
chicken back into the sauce. Cook until the sauce thickens (about 3 minutes).
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. (The sauce will continue to
thicken off the heat.) - Serve over cooked angel hair pasta
(or pasta of choice), rice, potatoes, cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles, if
desired.
