Making this Chicken Marsala Recipe
One of the first “fancy” meals I remember making for my husband was Chicken Marsala. It really isn’t that hard to make, but at the time I felt fancy.
Chicken Marsala was something I’d never eaten growing up, except for maybe once in a restaurant, and I’m pretty sure it was my first experience using wine for cooking. It seemed like a grown-up recipe.
It’s still one of my favorites today, though we hadn’t enjoyed it for a while.
One of the downsides to what I do is that I’m always trying new recipes and we don’t often have a lot of repeats in comparison to the number of new recipes I regularly try.

Tips for Making The Best Chicken Marsala
Want to know how to make amazing Chicken Marsala with the best flavor? Here are my tips
Use Good Quality Marsala Wine
The marsala mushrooms are the star in this recipe, so don’t skimp on the marsala wine – it’s the key ingredient!
If your grocery store doesn’t sell alcohol, head to your local liquor store and ask for a good quality marsala wine for a rich flavor!
For best results, make sure you are purchasing a dry marsala not sweet marsala wine. Sweet marsala would not taste right in this recipe.
Pound the Chicken Breasts Thin
In this recipe for chicken marsala, you want the chicken to me thin and tender.
Using a meat mallet to pound chicken achieves both of these goals – it tenderizes the meat, and it flattens it into thinner pieces.
Thick, large chicken breasts should be cut in half thickness-wise and then pounded because it can be hard to pound them thin enough without tearing the meat.

Cook the Chicken Properly
Overcooked chicken can result in dry meat. Likewise, undercooked chicken taste good either. Use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature of the chicken breasts.
Chicken is cooked through at 165 degrees F.
Flavorful Sauce
Cook the sauce in the same pan you cook the chicken in for extra flavor!
Scrape the brown bits from cooking the chicken that are in the bottom of the pan when adding the wine. A wooden spoon works well for this.
Then, incorporate them into the marsala chicken sauce.
What to Serve with Chicken Marsala
Need suggestions for chicken marsala sides? Here’s what we like to serve with this delicious mushroom chicken recipe:
I also like to serve it with a side of mashed potatoes. It feels so rich and comforting, yet sophisticated at the same time. And it’s perfect for a winter evening.
Another great side dish is to serve fresh pasta with chicken marsala. We like wide egg noodles best.
For vegetable side dishes, I think a big crisp, green salad balances the boldness of the Chicken Marsala. Roasted Broccoli, Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon, or Lemon Roasted Broccolini would also taste great if you prefer a cooked vegetable.

Wine that Goes with Chicken Marsala
- I like a lighter red wine with chicken marsala; something like a Pinot Noir tastes great.
- For those that prefer medium-bodied red wines, Malbec is another good chicken marsala wine pairing.
- If you favor white wines, you’ll want to look for a full-bodied white wine such as a Chardonnay.
That said, drink what you like! Try different wines and experiment until you find your preferred wine pairing.
What to Do with Leftover Chicken Marsala
Refrigerate Leftovers: Store leftover chicken marsala in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Make sure to transfer any leftover mushrooms in marsala sauce to the container, too!
Freeze Leftovers: I like to freeze leftovers in individual serving portions so I can have them for lunch during the work week.
Let the chicken marsala cool to room temperature, then transfer to a freezer safe airtight container. Use within 2-3 months.
How to Reheat Leftover Chicken Marsala
Reheat leftover chicken at partial power in the microwave, 30-60 seconds at a time, or stovetop in a lidded skillet. If you have frozen the leftovers, thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating for best results.

Chicken Marsala
Chicken MarsalaΒ isΒ one of my favorite special occasion chicken recipes. Thin chicken cutlets are dredged in seasoned flour, cooked until golden, and served topped with a delicious creamy mushroom marsala sauce. This recipe for Marsala Chicken is sure to be a hit!
Ingredients
For the Mushroom Mixture
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped Shallots
- 12 ounces Cremini Mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves Fresh Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped Fresh Sage
- 1 teaspoon fresh Thyme Leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt, or according to your taste
- 1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper, or according to your taste
For the Chicken
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 3/4 teaspoon Sea Salt, or according to your taste
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper, or according to your taste
- 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 2 pounds thinly sliced Chicken Breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
For the Marsala Sauce
- 1 cup Marsala Wine
- 1 1/4 cup Chicken Broth
- 1/3 cup Heavy Cream
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Lemon Juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Cooking the Mushroom Mixture
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter to a heavy skillet. Melt over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute until golden.
- Then, add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes. The mushrooms should be slightly browned and their juices evaporated.
- Stir in the garlic, sage, and thyme, and cook 2 more minutes, stirring as needed so the ingredients don't burn.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
Preparing the Chicken
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F.
- Combine flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a wide, shallow bowl. Stir until well sifted. Set aside.
- Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, gently pound the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap until they are 1/4 inch thick.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Then, dredge the chicken breasts on both sides in the flour mixture. Shake excess flour off.
- As each chicken breast is coated in flour, set aside on a baking tray.
- Heat the butter and olive oil together over medium high heat in a heavy skillet. You may use the same one that was used for the mushrooms.
- Once the butter mixture is melted and the pan hot, add half of the chicken and cook until golden, about 2 - 4 minutes. Flip the chicken and repeat on the other side.
- As the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a large oven safe platter in the preheated oven.
- Repeat cooking process with the remaining chicken. Then, add those cooked pieces to the platter, arranging all of the chicken so that it is in a single layer.
Making the Marsala Sauce
- Add the marsala wine to the same skillet, cooking for 30 seconds over medium high heat while scraping up any brown bits left in the pan.
- Then, add the chicken broth, the cream, lemon juice, and the reserved mushroom mixture with any accumulated juices.
- Stir until well mixed and cook over medium heat until the sauce begins to simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and transfer it to the skillet with the sauce.
Serving Chicken Marsala
- Serve chicken plated with sauce and mushrooms along side roasted garlic mashed potatoes (our favorite) or a top fresh pasta, such as tagliatelle.
- Garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
Tip for Preparing the Chicken Breasts
Thick, large chicken breasts should be cut in half thickness-wise and then pounded because it can be hard to pound them thin enough without tearing the meat.

Hi Katie! It’s been years since I cooked Chicken Marsala, so when I saw this yesterday, I was inspired to transform the chicken breasts in my fridge using your recipe. It came out great, thanks for reminding me of this tasty dish!
Feast on the Cheap says
I just LOVE chicken marsala – we actually do a saltimbocca/marsala twist where we use the fontina/prosciutto draped on top of chicken (and broiled to a nice crispy finish) then top with a marsala sauce. I haven’t yet met a person who didnt lick the plate clean. Other than a vegetarian, of course.
jaden says

I can’t wait to give this a try. Love Chicken Marsala.
Jen @ My Kitchen Addiction says
Yum! Chicken marsala is one of those “restaurant” dishes that I order a lot but very rarely make. I may just have to change that now. π
Gudrun says
IΒ΄m sorry if this question sounds stupid but, how many does the recipe serve and is 4 chicken breast halves equal to 2 chicken breasts?
Katie says
Since each chicken has two breasts, recipes sometimes refer to one side as a “chicken breast half.” You would just use 4 of what a grocery store normally labels as a chicken breast. The recipe serves 4, one breast for each person. Hope that helps.
Sues says
Chicken marsala is definitely one of my all-time favorite dishes. I’m not a huge chicken person, but I do LOVE it when it’s flavorful π This looks delicious!
