Chicken Marsala

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Poultry - Chicken

Traditionally, this dish is often made with veal but chicken works just as well.

"The first time I had Chicken Marsala was at a restaurant owned by my ex boyfriend. His family immigrated from Sicily years ago and opened one of the best local Italian restaurants in the area. It was the only thing that I craved for months. When we split up I longed for it but I did not want to go back to the restaurant. I remember watching him make it but for the life of me I couldn't remember what went in it! I Love this recipe, it's almost identical. All it's missing is some Sicilian love. " - JerseyBlue

    I enjoyed it very much.
    Tip: keep oil and butter quantities the same if you make half-size portion.
    Also, kept very well as leftover.
