Herbed Chicken Marsala
Smothered in low-calorie sauteed mushrooms and sundried tomatoes, this dish is both healthy
and satisfying. A little bit of butter goes a long way in the sauce-just a touch adds creamy
richness.
Ingredients
Directions
1. Place the chicken cutlets between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet
(or the flat side of a chef's knife) until about 1/3 inch thick. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon
salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
2. Put the flour on a medium plate. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high
heat. Dredge the chicken in the flour to fully coat, shaking off any excess. Add the
chicken to the skillet and fry until fully cooked and golden brown, about 4 minutes per
side. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil to keep warm.
3. Add 1/2 cup of the broth, the sun-dried tomatoes and rosemary to any remaining
drippings in the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute to plump the tomatoes.
Add the mushrooms, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook until the
mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the marsala and bring it to a boil. Add the
remaining 1/4 cup broth and the butter and simmer until the butter is fully melted about
30 seconds.
4. Spoon the mushroom mixture and sauce over the chicken, sprinkle with the parsley and
serve.
