Recipe Instructions:
-
Saute Chicken Cutlets:
- In a large skillet, heat butter or oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken cutlets and sauté until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
-
Cook Mushrooms:
- In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Once melted, add the fresh mushrooms and sauté until they are slightly browned and tender, approximately 2-3 minutes.
-
Prepare Sauce:
- Pour in the chicken broth and Marsala wine, stirring to combine with the mushrooms. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
-
Thicken Sauce:
- In a separate cup, mix the cornstarch with water until well combined. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet, stirring constantly. Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, usually around 2-3 minutes.
-
Combine Chicken and Sauce:
- Return the cooked chicken cutlets to the skillet, coating them evenly with the luscious Marsala sauce. Allow the chicken to heat through for an additional minute.
-
Serve:
- Transfer the Chicken Marsala to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with chopped parsley or freshly ground black pepper if desired. Serve hot with your choice of rice or noodles.
Recipe Notes:
- Marsala Wine: For an authentic flavor, use a good-quality Marsala wine. Choose a dry variety for a less sweet sauce or a sweet Marsala for a richer, sweeter taste.
- Mushrooms: Feel free to use any type of fresh mushrooms you prefer, such as button mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, or shiitake mushrooms.
- Thickening Sauce: If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can adjust the amount of cornstarch to achieve the desired consistency. Add more cornstarch for a thicker sauce or less for a lighter coating.
