Ingredients
Method
- Pound the chicken cutlets to 1/4-inch thickness. Whisk together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge each cutlet in the flour mixture and shake off the excess.
- Heat the olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the cutlets 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and cooked to 165°F (74°C). Transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
- Reduce heat to medium. Melt the remaining 1 tbsp butter in the same pan. Cook the mushrooms undisturbed for 3 minutes, stir, and cook another 2 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Pour in the Marsala wine, scrape up the browned bits, and simmer for 2 minutes until reduced by half. Add the chicken broth and heavy cream. Simmer for 5 to 6 minutes until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
- Return the chicken to the pan and warm through for 2 minutes over low heat. Spoon the sauce and mushrooms over the cutlets, plate, and scatter fresh parsley over the top.
Notes
This recipe is very forgiving if you need to scale it up. Double everything and use the largest skillet you have, searing the chicken in batches so the pan stays hot. The sauce may need an extra minute or two to reduce when doubled. Dry Marsala is important here; sweet Marsala will pull the sauce in the wrong direction.
