Nothing extra and exciting to say here, just excited to share our very yummy chicken marsala recipe. This unique and yummy flavoring on the chicken makes for a delicious dinner! You can serve this over angel hair pasta or mashed potatoes. 

RECIPE

(Yields 6 servings) 

2.5 lbs. of raw chicken tenders (breasts work here too, but tenders are much easier to pan fry and stay more tender.)

8 oz. Sliced mushrooms

8 Slices of raw bacon

1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon cracked pepper

1 ½ teaspoons of salt

1 ½ teaspoons of granulated garlic

3/4 cup marsala wine

1 ¼ cup of chicken broth

1 tablespoon of minced garlic (in water or freshly chopped)

4 tablespoons of butter, divided


  • Rinse and chop your mushrooms down to your desired size. Hint: The smaller you chop, the least likely your crew is to notice them! 
  • Set mushrooms aside in a bowl and chop raw bacon. Combine bacon with mushrooms.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, pepper, salt, and granulated garlic. 
  • Using your hands or a ziploc bag, coat raw chicken with flour mixture. (note: if using chicken breasts, pound them down so that they are not too thick.) 
  • Heat large skillet on stove on medium to high heat. 
  • Drop 3 tablespoons of butter into skillet. 
  • Pan fry chicken in skillet until no longer pink. Be careful not to overcook each tender. The chicken will return to the skillet to simmer at a later time. 
  • Once done, set chicken aside on a clean plate. 
  • Using the same skillet, drop in the last tablespoon of butter. Put mushrooms, bacon, and minced garlic in skillet and sauté. 
  • Once mushrooms are no longer producing water and bacon has cooked, (the bacon will not become crispy) add chicken, marsala wine, and chicken broth into skillet. 
  • Allow all ingredients to simmer for 12-15 minutes. The sauce will thicken slightly due to the flour coating still on the chicken. 
  • Once sauce has thickened, your dish is complete. Serve with mashed potatoes or angel hair pasta.
