Welll, it’s not exactly low-fat but it is less calories than the regular Chicken Marsala. Perhaps we should call it “lighter” Chicken Marsala…
This is one of my go-to favorite recipes. Year round it’s always good, the sage is earthy while the wine sauce is light & sweet. Just the perfect balance & it’s not too much work. Basically a great “nice dinner” recipe to have in your backpocket.
And Sophie Monster’s a fan…that’s always nice.
Chicken Marsala with Sage via MS Living
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, (6 to 8 ounces each)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 10 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1 shallot, minced
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage, plus more for garnish
- 1/2 cup sweet Marsala wine
- 1/4 cup half & half
- 1 tablespoon butter
Directions
- Place flour in a shallow bowl; season generously with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece of chicken in flour, shaking off excess.
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add chicken, and cook until golden on the outside and opaque throughout, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm (reserve skillet).
- Add mushrooms, shallot, sage, and 1/4 cup water to skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until mushrooms are tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add wine and cream; simmer over medium-high until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in butter; season with salt and pepper.
- Top chicken with mushroom sauce, and garnish with sage.
Looks so good, I will definitely be making this version next time I’m in the mood for Chicken Marsala.
I will be making this for sure .
Are the bunnies out in the wild now?
I made this yesterday night and it was delicious! However, my sauce never thickened. Not even “slightly.” Did I do something wrong?
Just made this tonight for lunch tomorrow… D-Lish!! But instead of Sage (I’m not a fan of the smell and taste) I substituted with dried oregano. This recipe was really easy, def going into monthly rotation! Thanks for sharing!!!
