Chicken Marsala Recipe
Chicken Marsala is a cozy Italian-American dish featuring tender chicken in a rich mushroom wine sauce—quick, flavorful, and easy to make at home.
- ½ cup all-purpose flour for coating
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 4 medium boneless skinless chicken breast halves (pounded ¼ inch thick)
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- ¼ cup Marsala wine
- ¼ cup cooking sherry
Pound chicken breasts to ¼-inch thickness for even cooking.
Mix flour, salt, pepper, and oregano in a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken, coating both sides; shake off excess.
Heat butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium. Cook chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden.
Flip chicken, add mushrooms, and pour in Marsala wine and sherry. Let it sizzle.
Cover and simmer on low for 10 minutes, turning once, until chicken is cooked and sauce thickens.
Plate and spoon mushroom wine sauce over chicken. Serve hot.
