Ingredients

  • 1 lb. chicken breasts, butterflied, 4 cutlets
  • 2 tablespoons AP flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, plus extra to season mushrooms
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper, plus extra to season mushrooms
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, washed and dried
  • ¼ cup shallots, diced small
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced, about 2-3 cloves
  • ¼ cup mushroom chicken bone broth
  • ¼ cup dry marsala cooking wine
  • 2-3 sprigs fresh thyme

Equipment

  • 1 large saute pan

Instructions 

  • Butterfly your chicken breasts so you have four cutlets.
    Grab a plate and combine the AP flour, salt, and black pepper. Dust the cutlets in the flour mixture making sure they’re well coated. Heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil plus one tablespoon butter. Add the breaded chicken cutlets to the pan and cook them for 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan.
  • In the same pan, add the remaining butter and mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Next, add the diced shallots, minced garlic, and fresh thyme. Stir well.
  • Once the mushrooms begin to brown and the shallots are translucent, deglaze the pan with the marsala wine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the wine reduces by half.
  • Next, add the mushroom chicken bone broth. Be sure to scrape up any crispy pieces from the bottom of the pan. Nestle the chicken back into the sauce.  Make sure it is cooked through. You’ll want the internal temp to reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure doneness. Remove the thyme. Serve hot.
