Chicken Marsala with Creamy Mushroom Sauce: The Ultimate Comfort Food Recipe


  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 8 oz cremini or white mushrooms, sliced

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3/4 cup Marsala wine

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)


Instructions

Prep Chicken:
Pound chicken breasts to even thickness. Season with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess.

Cook Chicken:
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Cook Mushrooms:
Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to skillet. Sauté mushrooms until browned, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

Deglaze & Simmer:
Pour in Marsala wine, scraping up browned bits. Simmer until wine reduces by half, about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth and simmer 3 more minutes.

Add Cream:
Stir in heavy cream and butter. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 3–4 minutes.

 

Combine & Serve:
Return chicken to skillet, spoon sauce over it, and warm through. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Serve hot.
