Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, butterflied and pounded 1/2-in. thick
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces thinly sliced fresh white or cremini mushrooms
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1-1/2 cups marsala wine
  • 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms, optional
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1-1/2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • fresh chopped parsley, for serving
  • grated parmesan cheese, for serving

Directions

  1. Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt and pepper; dredge with flour to coat. Dust off excess flour.
  2. Add chicken to the skillet; cook 3-4 minutes or until golden on one side; flip. Cook until bottom is golden brown and chicken is fully cooked, another 4-5 minutes. Remove; set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
  3. Add olive oil to the skillet; heat to medium. Add mushrooms; cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds, until fragrant. Deglaze the pan with Marsala wine; add dried porcini mushrooms, if desired. Bring sauce to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until wine is reduced by half and dried mushrooms are tender. Whisk in chicken broth, brown sugar, mustard and Worcestershire; season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in butter until melted. Return chicken to the skillet; keep warm over low heat until ready to serve. Garnish with chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese.
