Chicken Marsala with Mushrooms is a classic Italian-American dish featuring tender chicken breasts cooked in a savory sauce made with earthy mushrooms. Perfect for dinner or a special occasion, this flavorful recipe is easy to prepare and comes together in just 40 minutes. The optional addition of cream adds richness, while the dish pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes or pasta.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp butter

8 oz cremini or button mushrooms, sliced

3/4 cup white grape juice or apple juice

1/2 cup chicken broth

2 tbsp heavy cream (optional for extra richness)

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet. This ensures they cook evenly.

  2. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture, coating both sides.

  3. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  4. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, until tender and browned.

  5. Pour in the white grape juice (or apple juice) and chicken broth. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.

  6. Stir in heavy cream if desired, for a creamier sauce.

  7. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it. Simmer for another 5 minutes to heat through.

  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Mushroom Variety: Experiment with a mix of mushrooms like shiitake, cremini, or portobello for added depth of flavor.

  • Creaminess: Omit the heavy cream for a lighter dish, or add more for extra richness.
