Cheesecake Factory Chicken Marsala Recipe

Ingredients
 

  • 4 chicken breasts , boneless and skinless
  • 8 oz mushrooms , white button or brown sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup Marsala cooking wine
  • 1/4 cup virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • all-purpose flour, enough for dredging
  • black pepper, to taste
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1/8 cup fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Tenderize the Chicken:
  • Place each chicken breast in a plastic bag and gently pound them until they reach approximately 1/4 inch thickness. Set aside.
  • Seasoning:
  • In a shallow dish or small bowl, combine all-purpose flour, freshly ground black pepper, and salt to your taste preferences. Mix thoroughly.
  • Heat the Oil:
  • In a large skillet, heat extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Coat and Fry the Chicken:
  • Dredge both sides of the tenderized chicken breasts in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring to shake off any excess flour. Fry each side in the hot oil for roughly 5 minutes or until they turn a golden brown hue. If necessary, fry the chicken in batches. Once cooked, transfer them to a platter lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  • Prepare Mushrooms:
  • Introduce the mushrooms and sauté until they achieve a golden brown color and any excess moisture evaporates. Remove from the skillet, season with salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
  • Make Marsala Sauce:
  • Pour Marsala wine into the skillet and allow it to boil for 10-20 seconds to evaporate the alcohol content. Add chicken stock and let it simmer for a minute. Gradually stir in unsalted butter until the sauce achieves a slightly thickened consistency.
  • Combine and Simmer:
  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and let it simmer gently for approximately 90 seconds to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
  • Serve:
  • Arrange the chicken on a serving platter, top it with the prosciutto-mushroom mixture, and generously drizzle with Marsala sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley for a finishing touch.

Notes

For enhanced flavor, consider using chicken tenderloins or thinly sliced chicken cutlets.
Adjust the quantities of Marsala wine and olive oil according to your desired sauce consistency and flavor profile.
Serve the dish immediately for optimal taste and texture.
