Chicken Marsala
- 6 whole Chicken Breasts
- 1- 1/4 cup Flour, Divided
- 1/2 cups Vegetable Oil
- 1 cup Mushrooms, Sliced Or Diced
- 2 cups Chicken Broth
- 1 cup Dry Marsala Wine (or Sweet Marsala Wine)
- 3 Tablespoons Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base
- Salt And Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 6 sprigs Oregano Leaves, Minced
- First, pound chicken breasts until about even all the way across.
- For breaded chicken, just use 1 cup or so of flour to coat each piece.
- This is entirely optional, you know, for those who do not have a southern girl on the inside.
- Heat pan with oil to medium-high heat.
- When hot, fry chicken until 165 degrees F in the middle.
- Set chicken aside.
- Fry mushrooms for a few minutes over medium heat in the same pan.
- Set aside as well on a separate plate after cooked.
- Make sure pan has about 4 tablespoons of oil in it.
- If not, just add some and wait until hot again.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of flour into pan and whisk immediately.
- Cook a few minutes or until somewhat brown.
- Pour in chicken broth and continue to whisk.
- Sauce will thicken.
- (Again, thickening the gravy with a flour and oil roux is also optional.
- You can also just heat all the gravy ingredients and let it cook down for a while until it reduces to a lovely sauce.)
- Pour in Marsala wine.
- Continue to whisk.
- The whisking exercise makes the breading and the gravy okay.
- Gravy will turn a beautiful brown color.
- Add chicken base, salt and pepper to taste.
- Stir until chicken base melts into gravy.
- Stir in lemon juice, butter and then add mushrooms back into pan with sauce.
- Lastly, add fresh oregano.
- Pour gravy over chicken and serve.
- Or serve with gravy on the side so guests can choose how much they prefer.
- Though she is stunning served on its own, she also pairs will with pasta or a fresh green salad.
- She is Chicken Marsala.
- She is indulgent.
- Id imagine she originated in the southern part of Italy.
