CHICKEN MARSALA PASTA

Chicken Marsala Pasta image

Back in 2008, I won first place in a state fair cooking contest with this chicken marsala pasta. I absolutely love mushrooms, and this dish is full of them! You can substitute Italian dressing mix for the ranch with equally delicious results. -Regina Farris, Mesquite, Texas
