Portions:  4

Serving size: One chicken breast, 1/2 cup rice, 2 tablespoons sauce

Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup all-purpose white flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup shallots, sliced
• 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley (leave some for garnish)

• 1/3 cup dry Marsala wine
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation

1. Coat chicken with flour. In a large skillet, cook chicken in hot oil over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, turning chicken over once.
2. Remove chicken from skillet, cover, and keep warm.
3. Sauté shallots, mushrooms and parsley in Olivio® over medium heat for about 3 minutes.
4. Add wine, garlic powder and black pepper. Cook while stirring for 1 to 2 minutes, then pour over chicken and add vegetables.
5. Sprinkle with parsley.

Helpful Hints

• Substitute 1/2 cup pasta with garlic and olive oil for rice if desired.
• Olivio® Premium Spread is a vegetable oil and olive oil blend made into a spread similar to trans fat-free margarine. One tablespoon contains 80 calories, 8 g fat, 0 g trans fat, 0 cholesterol, 95 mg sodium.  If unavailable in your area substitute a similar soft tub spread.
• If another wine is substituted, this dish becomes Chicken with Wine, as it will no longer have the distinct flavor provided by the Marsala wine.
• This recipe is suitable for those on a lower protein diet if the portion of chicken is decreased to match their meal plan.

something is wrong with the recipe. I think you should add the liquids to the chicken wit the flour so they can thicken? the way it's written, it is very very thin because the liquids are poured over the chicken just before serving and not very good at all.

Great recipe & provides a pleasing presentation as well as flavor. I used the "sweet" not dry marsala wine.

Tasteless. But, if served with something sweet like applesauce, it's ok. Nothing like real chicken marsala.
