Easy Chicken Marsala & a Book from Nancy Lee Badger


Easter is the season of resurrection (and chocolate, but I digress). I found a recipe for this dish years ago, but it had at least 15 steps! By trial and error, I RESURRECTED it and created a simpler recipe that tastes fabulous. More importantly, everyone I share the meal with loves it. A side of mashed potatoes is a 'must'.

Nancy's Easy Chicken Marsala.

You will need a 10 in. or 12; diameter covered skillet. 

Olive oil

3 or 4 boneless chicken breasts, cubed (smaller cooks quicker, so your choice)

8-to-16oz package sliced mushrooms

onion, chopped (shallot, yellow, red, whatever)

1/2 Cup flour or Bisquick

1 Tablespoon cornstarch (optional, but will thicken sauce nicely)

Pinch of salt & pepper

1/2 stick butter

4-to--6 oz. Marsala cooking wine


(I had to borrow the above photo because we ate it all before I remembered to take a photo! Thanks, Pixabay.com)

Drizzle olive oil in the large frying pan. Sauté onions and mushrooms until soften and slightly darkened. Ladle onto a plate. 

In a big bowl, toss chicken with flour, salt and pepper, and optional cornstarch. Dump into hot pan with all the flour mixture and keep turning until all sides of each cube are lightly browned. Add cooked veggies, sliced pats of butter, and Marsala wine. Stir well, and cover. Bring to a boil, then simmer until chicken is cooked through, stirring every 10 minutes. Let sit so it absorbs the wine.

This recipe can be refrigerate then reheated in the microwave. Yo can add extra wine if the broth is too thick. It is YUMMY!


Although this recipe has been stripped down from the one I found years earlier, it is easier while giving you protein and veggies galore. Making food from scratch with no preservatives is a healthy alternative to store-bought. 

Entertainment during this pandemic is also healthy to a person's well-being so remember to READ BOOKS.
