You’ll love the tender cutlets, piles of mushrooms, and the rich, succulent Marsala sauce tying it all together.If you’re a mushroom lover like I am, Chicken Marsala is one of the best ways around to celebrate your favorite fungi.Start with thin, quick-cooking chicken breast cutlets lightly dusted with flour.

Fry in a mixture of butter and olive oil (butter for the flavor, olive oil for the higher smoking point).Cook a giant pile of mushrooms in the same manner.Then sauté a winning combination of shallots and garlic, thicken with flour, and deglaze with Marsala wine (a white wine fortified with brandy) and chicken broth.

Finally, stir in butter for richness and shine (this is known as monter au beurre, or “mount with butter,” which I never tire of saying).The thick, glossy sauce with mushrooms is so delicious with the chicken.Serve with mashed potatoes, buttery egg noodles or other cooked pasta, cooked white rice, or even Classic Risotto.
