This One Pot Chicken Marsala Pasta is a creamy, comforting twist on a classic.

Tossed with al dente pasta and finished with Parmesan cheese, this dish is a rich, one-pan wonder that makes weeknight dinners feel special—with minimal cleanup required.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Marsala Wine Magic 🍷
    Choose a high-quality dry Marsala wine to elevate the sauce's depth and complexity, avoiding overly sweet cooking wines.
  • Pasta Water Precision 💧
    Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining to help adjust sauce consistency and create a silkier texture if needed.
  • Chicken Searing Technique 🔥
    Pat chicken breasts completely dry with paper towels before seasoning to ensure a perfect golden-brown crust and prevent steaming.
  • Mushroom Moisture Management 🍄
    Sauté mushrooms separately and drain excess liquid to prevent watering down the Marsala sauce and maintain rich flavor concentration.
  • Cheese Melting Mastery 🧀
    Remove the pan from heat before adding Parmesan cheese to prevent breaking and ensure a smooth, creamy finish.
