Chicken Marsala
Ingredients
- 4 Boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2/3 cup Marsala wine
- 2/3 cup Heavy cream
- 2/3 cup Chicken stock/broth
- 1 pkg Baby Bella mushrooms white or brown
- 1 Shallot medium size, finely diced
- 4 cloves Garlic finely diced
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Butter separated
- 1/3 cup Flour
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pkg Thin spaghetti
Instructions
- Slice the mushrooms. I prefer to remove the stems first.
- Put the flour and 1/2 tsp of salt into a plastic bag
- Add chicken to bag and shake to coat chicken well.
- Heat the olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium high heat. Not hot enough to burn the butter!
- Add the chicken to the pan and cook about 5-6 minutes per side until the flour turns golden brown and the middle of the chicken reaches 145 degrees F. Remove the chicken to a plate and cover with foil
- Turn the heat down to medium and add the rest of the butter and saute the mushrooms for 4-5 minutes. Add the shallots and garlic and cook for a minute more
- Add the Marsala wine, cream, and chicken stock to the pan. Raise the heat long enough to bring it to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer stirring occasionally until it is reduced by about half.
- Add salt and pepper to taste
- Add the chicken back into the pan, cover, and let it simmer while you cook the pasta
- Fill a large skillet with cold water. Lay the spaghetti in the bottom of the pan and add salt. Turn the heat on high. Once the water starts to boil, set a timer for 6 minutes. The pasta should be al dente after the timer. Cook an additional minute or two if necessary.
- Serve the chicken over the pasta and cover with mushrooms and sauce.
