BJ's Chicken Marsala

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Poultry - Chicken

A quick and tasty Italian favorite!

"Excellent dish (although I used a slightly different recipe)! The Marsala sauce can also be made by whisking in a beurre manie (combine 2T flour, 1T butter and mix, sort of like a pastry dough) a little at a time after letting the sauce reduce. This adds a tiny bit of fat to the recipe but allows the sauce to thicken and better cling to the chicken.
I also added 1c of mushroom broth to the marsala wine prior to reducing. It helps accentuate the earthy tones of the rest of the dish and contributes a lot to the overall flavor." - Mythgarr

    Didn't have marsala, so substituted it with white wine and a tblspn of brandy. Came out divine. Guests said it tasted like authentic 'marsala' :)

    Wanted a more lowfat version and found the sauce was lacking body, so I halved the butter/oil and added 1 cup of beef broth, 2 Tbsps half-n-half and some cornstarch to thicken. Loved the flavor that the oregano added.
