Chef Jeff's Chicken Marsala
It's already December and it's approaching the end of the 2017 @steemit-ironchef challenge. The special ingredient for Week #14 is the Mushroom! I have chosen to make a classic Italian-American dish, the Chicken Marsala. It infuses Crimini Mushrooms with American Marsala wine to make a delicious sauteed chicken meal. Here is the recipe in a few simple steps:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds - Boneless Chicken Cutlets
1/2 pound - Crimini Mushrooms
4 oz - thinly sliced Prosciutto
1/2 cup - Marsala Wine
1/2 cup - Chicken Stock
1/4 - Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons of Salted Butter
Parsley
Salt & Pepper
Garlic Powder
Flour
Step 1: Pound the Chicken
Cover the chicken breasts and flatten them until roughly 1/4 inch thick all around.
Step 2: Dredge and Fry
Prepare a plate with flour, salt and pepper as you wait for 1/4 cup of EVOO to heat up. Dredge the chicken and place it into the hot oil for a few minutes on each side until golden.
Step 3: Cover and Place Aside
Once the chicken is golden brown, place them under tinfoil to keep warm.
Step 4: Add Prosciutto & Shrooms to the Oil
Add the thinly sliced prosciutto and Crimini mushrooms (stemmed and slice) into what's left of the oil. Cook until mushrooms begin to brown.
Step 5: Pour in Wine and Chicken Broth
Pour in a half cup of the Marsala wine and a half cup of the chicken broth. Simmer down.
Step 6: Add the Chicken and Butter
Add the Chicken back to the pan along with 2 tablespoons of butter, some salt, pepper and garlic powder for tasting. Submerge the chicken and cook for a few more minutes.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy!
Pour it over your favorite pasta and garnish with some freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy!
