Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the fettuccine according to package directions, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water before draining.
- While the pasta water is heating and pasta cooks, proceed with the rest of the recipe. Preheat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the pan and cook until light golden brown on each side, about 4 to 6 to minutes depending on the thickness of each piece. Transfer the chicken to a plate, cover with foil and set aside.
- In the same pan, add 2 tablespoons of butter and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion with a pinch of salt and cook until softened and translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes. Increase the heat to high and add the mushrooms and sauté until tender and the mushrooms are browned in places, about 10 to 12 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 1 minute. Add the Marsala and simmer until the liquid has reduced slightly, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and Dijon mustard and heat until melted. Return the chicken to the pan and simmer over medium-low heat until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thick. Add the drained pasta and enough pasta water to make a creamy sauce. Taste for seasonings and adjust if necessary. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cool slightly.
- While the chicken cools, melt 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion and saute until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 12 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until it is reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and mustard. Cut the chicken breasts crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over medium-low heat until the chicken is just cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Drain. Toss the fettuccine with 3 tablespoons of butter and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Swirl the fettuccine onto serving plates. Spoon the chicken mixture over top. Garnish with parsley sprigs and serve.
CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD MASCARPONE MARSALA SAUCE (NO FLOUR)
Giada's fantastic recipe over on Foodnetwork.com has no nutrition info unfortunately, and I wanted to have this in my "Plan to Eat" menu, so bringing it over here again. Also, since I am trying to do more and more complete meals in the preparation, I have added a side dish to this as well, and left out the Fettuccini because we are doing lower carbs. One of the beautiful things about this original before I doctored it, is that it doesn't require you to dredge the chicken in flour. She obviously has some great videos for the preparation on the original site. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/chicken-with-mustard-mascarpone-marsala-sauce-recipe-1944096 Be sure in your preparations you always use fresh ingredients, such as the parsley. I tend to leave out the ingredient level descriptions on the original sites as they don't give you proper nutritional values, which is why I reproduce so many recipes here. https://www.plantoeat.com/ref/da49b1fdd7
