Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into chunks
2 cups white mushroom, or button mushrooms, sliced
1 white onion, sliced
3 cups chicken stock
1 ½ cups heavy cream
1 cup marsala wine
3 cups penne pasta, uncooked
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, optional garnish

Steps:

Heat a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and chicken breast. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook until chicken is no longer pink. Remove and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, and the mushrooms and onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until onions are browned, stirring occasionally.
Return the chicken to the pot. Add the stock, cream, wine, and pasta, bring up to a simmer, and cover.
*Marsala wine can be purchased at most grocery stores near the dessert or sweet wines and gives the dish a distinct flavor. However, if you can't get your hands on Marsala, you can substitute 1 cup of white wine (240 ml) plus 1 ½ tablespoons of brandy.
Simmer until pasta is tender, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
When pasta is tender, stir in parmesan cheese until smooth. Remove from heat.
Garnish with fresh parsley.

Provided by jenknoll

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts, boneless, skinless; cut into bite sized pieces
11 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup Marsala cooking wine
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 pound dry pasta + water for cooking
1 cup Parmesan cheese + more for serving
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Steps:

Season chicken with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet until foaming. Cook chicken until lightly browned. Transfer to plate when done. Boil water and cook pasta according to the directions. Melt additional 1 tablespoon of butter in skillet, add garlic, mushrooms and onion and cook for about 6 minutes. Add cooked chicken back into the skillet. Add the Marsala, chicken broth and cream and bring to a boil. Simmer until sauce is is slightly thickened. Drain pasta and reserve 1/2 cup cooking water. Return the pasta to the pot with the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the mushrooms and chicken mixture and 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and cook until the pasta has absorbed some of the sauce, about 1 minute, adding the reserved cooking water as needed if sauce needs more liquid. Season with salt and pepper and serve with additional Parmesan cheese and a garnish of chopped parsley.

Tips:

Choose boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for a quick and easy meal.
Use a dry white wine like Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio for the best flavor.
Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken. Cook it in batches if necessary.
Add the mushrooms and garlic to the pan after the chicken is cooked and browned.
Use a good quality chicken broth for the best flavor.
Add a splash of heavy cream or crème fraîche to the sauce for a richer flavor.
Serve the Creamy Chicken Marsala Pasta over your favorite pasta, such as penne, spaghetti, or linguine.
