Emeril's Chicken Marsala - Chicken Marsala
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). Essence,(recipe included)
- 2 (6 oz (168 grm). to 8 oz (224 grm).) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in halves and pounded thin
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). olive oil
- 4 tbsp (60 ml). butter (divided)
- 3 cups (700 ml) sliced mushrooms
- 3/4 cup (175 ml) dry Marsala Wine
- 1 cup (225 ml) chicken stock
- salt and pepper to taste
- chopped green onions/chives (for garnish)
- 2-1/2 tbsp (35 ml). paprika
- 2 tbsp (30 ml). salt
- 2 tbsp (30 ml). garlic powder
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). black pepper
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). onion powder
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). dried leaf oregano
- 1 tbsp (15 ml). dried thyme
- Combine all the ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container (or better yet, just buy a jar in the spice section of the grocery store "Emeril's Creole Seasoning).
- In a bowl, mix the flour and the Essence and combine thoroughly.
- Dredge the chicken breast in the flour and Essence mixture, shake off the excess, and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet (I use an electric skillet and cooking the temperature of 360 degrees-medium high.)
- Add one tbsp of the butter and then the chicken.
- Brown the chicken on both sides, until done (this depends on how thin the pieces are).
- Take the chicken out and sit aside.
- Now to the skillet add another tbsp of butter and then add the mushrooms.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are golden brown around the edges and have given off their liquid.
- Add the Marsala wine and bring to a boil, scraping to remove any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- When the wine has reduced by half, add the chicken stock and cook for 3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Lower the heat to about 340 degrees (175 C.) to 350 degrees (175 C.) (medium) and return the chicken breast to the pan.
- Continue to cook until they are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Swirl in the remaining 2 tbsp (30 ml) of butter.
- Add salt and pepper, to taste.
- I serve this over egg noodles, but would be great over rice, mashed potatoes, or any kind of pasta.
- Then sprinkle the onions/chives over the top and serve.
