Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients
Thickly slice the brown mushrooms and set aside. Finely mince garlic cloves and chop fresh parsley. Halve chicken breasts lengthwise to create four cutlets. Pound them to 1/3 to 1/4 inch thick for even cooking. - Season and Dredge Chicken
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off excess, for a golden crust. - Cook Chicken
In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil. Cook chicken until golden, about 3 minutes per side. Ensure they reach 165°F (74°C), then transfer to a plate and cover. - Sauté Mushrooms
In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms, sauté until golden. Add onion powder and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant. - Make the Marsala Sauce
Add Marsala wine, reduce by half, then stir in chicken stock and cream. Simmer until slightly thickened. Season to taste with salt. - Combine and Serve
Return chicken to the skillet and coat with sauce. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve warm with your choice of pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
