Golden Pan-Seared Chicken with Creamy Marsala Mushrooms

Ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

8 ounces cremini or white mushrooms, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

3/4 cup Marsala wine

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:

Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Lightly coat each chicken breast in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.

Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover loosely with foil.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet.

Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become tender and deeply golden.

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, just until fragrant.

Pour in the Marsala wine, scraping the flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the wine to reduce slightly.

Add the chicken broth and simmer for another 3-4 minutes.

Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently, until the sauce becomes creamy and slightly thickened.

Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Spoon the creamy mushroom Marsala sauce over the chicken.

Simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb some of the rich sauce.

Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately with mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
