1 1/4 cups unsalted chicken broth
2 (10 - 11 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts, (butterflied and halved, pounded to an even thickness)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp olive oil
8 oz. cremini mushrooms, (sliced)
3 garlic cloves, (minced (1 Tbsp))
1 tsp minced fresh thyme ((or scant 1/2 tsp dried))
1 tsp minced fresh oregano ((or scant 1/2 tsp dried))
1 1/2 tsp cornstarch (whisked with 1 Tbsp chicken broth (in a small bowl until well combined))
1/3 cup heavy cream

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, each breast cut crosswise into 3 pieces
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
5 tablespoons butter, divided
3/4 cup chopped onion
1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 cup dry Marsala wine
1 cup (8 ounces) mascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves, plus whole sprigs, for garnish
12 ounces dried fettuccine

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cool slightly.
  • While the chicken cools, melt 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion and saute until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until it is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and mustard. Cut the chicken breasts crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain. Toss the fettuccine with 3 tablespoons of butter and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Swirl the fettuccine onto serving plates. Spoon the chicken mixture over top. Garnish with parsley sprigs and serve.

CREAMY CHICKEN MARSALA

I got this recipe from my roommate who had grown up with it. I try not to eat much meat but the sauce alone over rice or pasta is to die for. It is such a great mixture of savory, earthy, salty and a tiny bit sweet.
