Mary's Wonderful Chicken Marsala

By Daniel Z. Kane

Chicken marsala is one of my favorite dishes.

But, I never order it in a restaurant. That is because, however good the restaurant is, I know their chicken marsala will disappoint me.

The reason is simple. Mary, my wife of more than thirty years, makes the best chicken marsala on earth. I'm not kidding.

Here is Mary's recipe.

Flatten boneless chicken breasts with a kitchen mallet and cut each breast into 5-6 pieces.

Dredge them in flour, and saute them in a pan with a stick of butter and mushroom slices. After cooking for a few moments, add 1/2 to 3/4 of a cup of Marsala wine and cook until done.

Serve the chicken on boiled rice, spooning the remaining butter/marsala mixture over it.

You'll love it. - 16492
