Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
3/4 cup Marsala wine
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Instructions

1. Pound chicken breasts to even thickness, about 1/2 inch.
2. In a shallow dish, mix flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
3. In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons butter with olive oil over medium heat. Cook chicken for 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
4. In the same skillet, add remaining butter and mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms are browned, about 5 minutes.
5. Stir in Marsala wine and chicken broth, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce reduces slightly.
6. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for 3-5 minutes until heated through. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
