To DIE for Chicken Marsala

Recipe #28398 | 35 min | 10 min prep | add private note

A MUST HAVE for anyone that loves Italian food. This is a extremely easy recipe and it is great for dinner parties or a romantic dinner with your Honey. Try it and let me know what you think! I buy pre-sliced mushrooms and pre-made broth and it really cuts down the time you spend preping.

This was in fact very easy to make. I opted for the precut thin chicken breasts to save time, along with store bought broth and precut mushrooms. You made no mention of dry vs. sweet marsala wine - so I chose sweet. The dish turned out very good, my husband was impressed! My sauce did not thicken, so I added approx. 2 TBSP of cornstarch and it turned out nicely. Thanks for sharing! I have uploaded a picture of my dish pared with a few leaves of fresh basil from my herb garden.

    I've tried making this 3 times now, for me it was nothing special. While it's true that it is easy, it's quite bland and doesn't really taste like a traditional marsala sauce- I wouldn't say don't try it, but it is what it is.

    What a delicious, EASY recipe! We loved it, and had no problem getting the sauce to thicken, so I didn't add cornstarch or flour. The flavor was perfect, and using good canned broth and presliced mushrooms, as Kari suggested, really did make for a super-fast preparation. This is definitely fast enough for a weeknight, but tastes much more like a weekend meal - wonderful!

    This was very easy and tasty!! Very mild, not overpowering marsala taste. I only used 2 chicken breasts (they were huge) and used the full recipe for the sauce. It took close to 30 minutes for the sauce to reduce and never really thickned, so I added a thickening agent. Picky Hubby said it was a keeper!
