CHICKEN MARSALA


INGREDIENTS:

4 Boneless Chicken Breasts
1 Container of Whole White Mushrooms Sliced (2-3 cups)
4 Scallions Diced (Green Onions)
1 Stick Butter Melted
1/2 Cup of Chicken Broth
1/2 Cup of Marsala Wine  (Marsala Cooking Wine in the Seasoning Aisle is Non-Alcoholic)
1/4 Cup of Flour
1/2 Cup of Shredded Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Cup of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Garlic, Parsley and Salt and Pepper to Taste
Linguini Noodles 




PLEASE NOTE this recipe is not weight-watcher friendly... but it sure is good!


DIRECTIONS:

1.  Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

2.  In a skillet, melt 4 tablespoons butter with garlic (to taste) on low-medium heat.

3.  Pound out chicken breasts so that they are flat, tender and approximately 1/4 inch thick.

4.  Dredge chicken breast in flour, season with salt and pepper to taste.  (I don't use salt.)

5.  In hot garlic butter - cook chicken 4-5 minutes on each side or until a golden brown.    
Place chicken in a 9X13 casserole dish.

6.  In skillet, add mushrooms and lightly sauté for 3-4 minute.  Add another 3 tbs butter (if needed) to properly sauté. Pour mushrooms over chicken breasts.

7.  Stir chicken broth and marsala wine into the pan drippings and then pour over mushrooms and chicken.  Add scallions.

5. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.

6.  While baking, boil water and add linguini noodles. Cook per directions on box.

7.  After 10 minutes, remove chicken from oven.  Mix parmesan and mozzarella cheese together and put on top chicken.  Sprinkle with parsley.  Bake for 5-10 more minutes until cheese is melted.

8.  Drain noodles, toss with 1tbs garlic butter.

9 Add a serving of noodles to your plate, top with chicken breast, mushrooms and sauce.

10. Serve and Enjoy!

Be prepared to have a nap after eating this meal... and then run on the treadmill!  This is one of our favorite meals.  I have tried to make it healthier but the real butter gives it a taste I can't duplicate. Jase loved the garlic noodles and the chicken.  He even ate a few mushrooms.  It is also great with mashed potatoes instead of noodles.

ENJOY!
