Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 0.5 cup Marsala wine
  • 2 cups cooked pasta penne or rigatoni
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.25 cup chicken broth
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 0.25 cup parmesan cheese grated, for garnish

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  • Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
  • Stir in heavy cream and let simmer for another 2 minutes. Return chicken to skillet and spoon sauce over top to heat through.
  • Serve chicken and sauce over cooked pasta, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

This recipe can be made gluten-free by using gluten-free pasta. For a lighter sauce, substitute half-and-half for heavy cream.
