in this episode our cat makes a special
appearance I stare at some chicken I put
butter in a pan and I show you how to
make chicken marsala welcome back to
moore approved I'm James and today I'm
going to be showing you how to make
chicken marsala chicken marsala is quick
and easy and I think you'll be thrilled
with the simplicity of this great dish
go ahead and preheat a pan and add a
little bit of olive oil into it you
don't want a ton in there you just want
enough to coat the bottom and then you
take a 4 ounce chicken breast and then
lightly dredge that in some flour that
has been seasoned with pepper and salt
you'll know your pan is hot enough if
you take a tiny little bit of flour and
drop it in there and if it sizzles off
real quick then it's ready to go our pan
is nice and hot we're going to go ahead
and shake off the excess flour from our
chicken breast we're going to gently set
that into the pan now you don't want it
to move around at this phase you want to
sort of sit there and you want that
flour to sort of brown up on the other
side we're going to take and turn our
heat down just a little bit now that
everything's nice and hot we don't want
it to burn and as soon as that side of
the chicken Browns up we'll go ahead and
flip it over and add in our mushrooms if
you take a close look you can see some
fats that are coming out of the chicken
so we should be about ready to flip this
over I'm pretty happy with it
I believe our chickens about halfway
cooked through so we're going to go
ahead and flip that over I'm going to
push that down a little bit now we're
going to take 1/2 a cup of mushrooms add
those in and now we're going to let this
cook and move the mushrooms around until
they start to sweat
our mushrooms have just about
caramelized so we're going to go ahead
and turn off the flame we're going to
carefully pull this away from any heat
sources and I'm going to slowly add in
some Marsala wine this does have a high
alcohol content to it so make sure that
there is no open flame when you add this
into your pan we're going to swoosh this
around the sides try to equalize some of
that heat and now we're going to turn
the flame back on and reduce that by
half now that it's reduced down we can
go ahead and add in our chicken stock in
our seasonings go ahead and add in our
seasonings and we're going to bring this
back up to a boil and let this reduce
down by half our sauce is reduced down
nicely I'm going to go ahead and add in
just another tiny little dash of Marsala
to build that sweetness and then we're
going to take a tablespoon of butter put
it into the pan and gently move that
around you want to make sure it's off
the heat at this point and you want to
slowly stir that in and now we're ready
to plate now for plating you can
use pretty much any sort of starch in
any sort of vegetable that you want but
I'm going to go ahead and take my
chicken breast and arrange that right
off the edge of my starch in my sauteed
spinach and I'm going to take some of
these mushrooms set those right on the
top of that now we're just going to
drizzle the sauce over the top of the
chicken and off to one side so you have
a nice little pool and there you have it
a quick and easy chicken marsala that
you can do at home I have the full
recipe and ingredient list down in the
