Instructions

Slice chicken breasts in half length wise. You will end up with four thin chicken cutlets. Place the chicken pieces between two pieces of plastic wrap and flatten them until they are about 1/4 inch thick. Season both sides of each chicken cutlet with All purpose seasoning.

Cook Pasta per package directions.

In a shallow dish, combine flour,all purpose seasoning and Italian Seasoning blend. Dredge each chicken cutlet in flour mixture, making sure each piece is completely coated.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Place chicken in the pan and brown for 3-4 minutes on each side. Depending on the size of your pan, you may have to do this in batches. Remove cooked chicken from the pan and set aside.

Turn heat down to medium. Add butter to the pan. Once butter is melted, add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Saute mushroom for 4-5 minutes. Add Marsala wine and sherry to the pan and place the chicken back in the pan. Simmer for 3 minutes or until liquid has reduced slightly.

Serve chicken and marsala sauce over the pasta.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pound Chicken Evenly 🔨
Use a meat mallet to pound chicken breasts to consistent quarter-inch thickness, ensuring uniform cooking and that delicate, tender texture that makes Chicken Marsala special.
Dry Your Cutlets Thoroughly 🧻
Pat chicken completely dry with paper towels before flouring—moisture prevents proper browning and creates steam instead of a beautiful golden crust.
Build Your Wine Sauce in Two Stages 🍷
Deglaze with dry white wine first to lift fond from the pan, then add Marsala at the end for deeper flavor and to preserve its delicate sweetness without cooking it away.
Sauté Mushrooms Separately ✨
Cook mushrooms in a separate pan with butter and high heat until golden-brown, then add to the sauce—this prevents them from releasing water and keeps your sauce silky rather than watery.
Finish with Cold Butter 🧈
Whisk in cold diced butter at the very end off-heat to create an emulsified, luxuriously glossy sauce that coats the pasta perfectly.
