Mary's Wonderful Chicken Marsala

By Daniel Z. Kane

I love chicken marsala.

But, it has been ten years since I've ordered it in a restaurant. For ten tears before that, I tried and tried, but I was unable to find a restaurant with chicken marsala that made me happy.

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

Try her recipe and I bet nobody in your family will eat chicken Marsala in a restaurant either. Here's how to make it.

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 over rice, pouring the remaining butter-marsala mixture on the chicken and rice.

You'll love it. - 16650
