Chicken Marsala with Browned Butter Sauce
- 2 cubes Salted Butter Plus 2 Tablespoons, Divided
- 1 package (16 Oz. Package) Thin Spaghetti Noodles, Cooked
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1/2 cups Flour
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian Or All-purpose Seasonings
- 6 pieces Boneless, Skinless, Thinly Cut Chicken Breasts
- 1 bottle Marsala Wine
- 1 cup Fresh Sliced Mushrooms
- 1 cup Myzithra Cheese, Finely Grated
- Start by making the browned butter sauce.
- Cut the 2 cubes of salted butter into 8 pieces each and drop in a heavy 2-quart sauce pan over medium heat.
- (If you are paranoid about setting things aflame in your kitchen, you can use a 3-quart pan.)
- Bring the 2 cubes of butter to a slow boil (about five minutes).
- Once the butter starts to boil, stir constantly to prevent residue from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- The butter will foam and rise as it cooks.
- Do notI repeatdo not let it overflow the pan.
- This could start a fire and that would totally ruin a perfectly good recipe!
- Once the butter stops rising and foaming, cook until it is amber in color and has a caramel aroma.
- Remove pan from burner and let settle for a few minutes.
- The sediment will settle on the bottom of the pan.
- Pour the butter through a strainer into a bowl.
- Do not disturb the sediment.
- Set aside.
- (The butter sauce can be stored covered in the fridge and reheated as needed).
- Put your spaghetti noodles on to boil and then go to work on the chicken.
- Pour olive oil into a heavy skillet over medium heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Mix flour, salt and seasonings in a Ziploc bag.
- Coat each piece of chicken with flour mixture before placing in the hot saute pan.
- Brown on both sides, about two minutes per side.
- Add wine and mushrooms and cook for about 10 minutes or until chicken is done.
- While the chicken is cooking, grate the cheese.
- I used a nutmeg grater (because it was what I had that day) or a microplane grater would also work well.
- You want the cheese to be fine.
- Plate the noodles, top with chicken and mushrooms, drizzle with butter and finish with a liberal sprinkling of cheese.
- So good, savory and delicious!
- Enjoy!
