Instructions
- Season and cook chicken. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken with oregano, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken in flour then add to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside, tent with foil to keep warm.
- Cook mushrooms. To the same skillet, reduce the heat to low then add the butter and mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are softened about 5 minutes then add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Simmer sauce. Turn the heat up to medium high and add the Marsala. Cook until almost evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.
- Make sauce. Reduce the heat slightly then add the heavy cream. Stir to combine and cook until slightly thickened, about two minutes.
- Combine and serve. Add the chicken back to the skillet and coat with the sauce. Remove from heat and serve.
Notes
- You can use boneless skinless chicken thighs for this recipe.
- For best results, tenderize chicken before cooking by covering with plastic wrap, placing on a cutting board and pounding flat to a consistent thickness.
- You can also use different variations of mushrooms if preferred.
- Careful not to use a sweet Marsala wine, you must use dry or it will change the flavor of the entire dish.
