Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup dry Marsala wine
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Dredge the chicken breasts in all-purpose flour, shaking off the excess.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and turn golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 6

Deglaze the skillet by adding the Marsala wine. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and let the wine simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half.

Step 7

Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer for another 3-5 minutes, thickening slightly.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce and mushrooms over the top. Cook for 2-3 minutes to warm through.

Step 9

Sprinkle crumbled Gorgonzola cheese over the chicken and cover the skillet with a lid. Let it sit for a minute or two, just until the cheese starts to melt.

Step 10

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy with mashed potatoes, pasta, or crusty bread on the side.
