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.

Chicken with Chanterelle Mushrooms and Marsala Wine image

A fortunate mistake in forgetting to marinate the chicken in additional ingredients made me come up with this last-minute preparation. It's chanterelle season in Oregon, and I love to use this wild mushroom as often as I can in the fall.

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon paprika

2 tablespoons butter
½ pound sliced chanterelle mushrooms
4 tablespoons butter
salt and ground black pepper, or to taste
1 cup chicken broth
½ cup dry Marsala wine
1 teaspoon dried tarragon, crushed

Steps:

  • Stir flour and paprika together in a shallow dish. Remove and set aside 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture for later use. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture to coat evenly.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chanterelle mushrooms in melted butter until they release their liquid and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Cook the chicken breasts in the melted butter until browned, about 3 minutes per side; season with salt and pepper.
  • Return the cooked mushrooms to the skillet and stir in chicken broth, reserved 1 tablespoon of flour-paprika mixture, Marsala wine, and dried tarragon. Place a cover on the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook until the sauce is thick, the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
