CHICKEN MARSALA WITH MUSHROOMS



Chicken Marsala with Mushrooms image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

One 4- to 5-pound chicken (organic and free range, if possible), cut into 10 pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
4 cups sliced white button mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 medium onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 cup dry marsala
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled, cut into cubes
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
Chardonnay, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Pat the chicken pieces dry with a paper towel and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Set a turkey roaster pan over 2 burners on medium heat and add the canola oil. Brown the chicken, skin-side down first, 3 to 4 minutes, then turn and brown on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add a little more of the oil to the pan on high heat and add the mushrooms, garlic and onions. Season with salt and cook just long enough to get some color on the mushrooms, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and thyme and cook about 1 minute longer. Place the chicken pieces back into the pan skin-side up and spread them out evenly, pushing them down into the mushrooms and onions. Add the marsala, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan, and add the chicken broth. Place the whole pan in the oven and cook until the tops of the chicken are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Use tongs to remove the chicken from the pan and transfer onto a serving platter and keep warm. Set the roasting pan back over the burner on high heat. Bring the contents to a boil and cook the liquid until it is reduced and the flavors become concentrated, 3 to 4 minutes. Shut off the heat, add the butter cubes and stir gently to melt the butter evenly. This will thicken the marsala sauce and give it a rich flavor. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Add a squeeze of the lemon juice and fold in the parsley. Pour over the chicken and serve with Chardonnay.

CHEF JOHN'S CHICKEN MARSALA



Chef John's Chicken Marsala image

Certain dishes have a special place in my heart and this is one of them. The first real restaurant job I had in San Francisco was at a small place called Ryan's Cafe. It was run by a husband and wife team, Michael and Lenore Ryan. They were true 'foodies' before that term had even been coined. This chicken Marsala dish was the most popular dish on the menu and the first one that I was taught.

Time 1h

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 skin-on, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons butter, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil
5 white mushrooms, sliced
1 shallot, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup Marsala wine
2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon cold butter

Steps:

  • Season chicken breasts all over with salt and pepper.
  • Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts, skin-side down, in hot butter and oil until browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until breasts are almost cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Transfer chicken breasts to a plate.
  • Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper in hot butter until mushrooms are golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add minced shallot; cook and stir until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle flour over the top and cook and stir until the bitterness of the flour cooks off, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Pour wine into skillet and bring to a boil; cook and stir until wine reduces and sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken stock; bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced, 3 to 5 minutes more.
  • Return chicken breasts to the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook chicken, turning once, until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from heat.
  • Move chicken to one side of the skillet and tilt the skillet so that the sauce pools at the bottom. Stir parsley and 1 teaspoon cold butter into the sauce, stirring constantly, until sauce is shiny and butter is completely melted. Transfer chicken breasts to plates and spoon mushrooms and sauce over the top.

CHICKEN MARSALA

Most versions of this dish are high in fat and calories. But in this easy chicken marsala recipe, the flavor comes from deglazing the skillet with the broth and wine, so even though I eliminated extra oil, the taste isn't lost. -Nancy Granaman, Burlington, Iowa

Categories     main-dish

Time 9h30m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 4- to 5-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup pitted dates, quartered
1/2 cup pitted Cerignola olives, halved
1/4 cup capers with brine
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon dried oregano
8 cloves garlic, peeled and finely pureed or grated
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 cup white wine

Steps:

  • Arrange the chicken in a large baking dish and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Combine the olive oil, vinegar, dates, olives, capers with their brine, parsley, oregano, garlic and bay leaves in a large bowl. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken. Flip and rotate the chicken to coat it completely. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Let the chicken sit at room temperature while the oven preheats.
  • Arrange the chicken pieces so that they are all skin-side up. Spoon the marinade from the bottom of the dish over the chicken. Sprinkle the chicken with the brown sugar. Pour the wine around the chicken. Bake, basting every 10 to 15 minutes with the pan juices, until the chicken is brown on top, the juices run clear when pierced and the internal temperature is 165 degrees F, 50 to 60 minutes. Baste the chicken with its juices, then transfer it to a large platter. Spoon the olives, capers and dates over the chicken with a slotted spoon, only including a little of the sauce. Serve the remaining sauce on the side, if desired.

Tips:

  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will result in soggy skin.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice golden brown crust on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Use a good quality Marsala wine. The quality of the wine will greatly affect the flavor of the sauce.
  • Don't boil the sauce. Bring it to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer the sauce for 10-15 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly.
  • Serve the chicken Marsala with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.
