Instructions: How to Cook Chicken Marsala Barefoot Contessa

1. Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of parchment paper and pound them to 1/4-inch thick with a meat mallet. Season each piece with salt and pepper.
2. Place the flour in a shallow plate and dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off the excess.
3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3 minutes on each side, until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and sauté the mushrooms for about 5 minutes, until they are browned and tender.
5. Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken stock, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
6. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
7. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving. Serve the Chicken Marsala hot with your favorite side dish.
