Chicken Marsala

The Book "Bet Me" is my inspiration for this recipe.  They just kept on mentioning this dish and I just have to try and see.  I got the Chicken Marsala recipe from squidoo.  There are lots of other versions but this is the simplest I found.  I served it with steamed broccoli.

1/4 cup all purpose flour for coating

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded 1/4 inch thick    

4 tablespoons butter

4 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup marsala wine
1/4 cup cooking sherry

1. In a shallow dish or bowl, mix together the flour, salt, pepper and oregano.  Coat chicken pieces in flour mixture.

2.  In a large skillet, melt butter in oil over medium heat.  Place chicken in the pan and lightly brown. 

Turn over chicken pieces and add mushrooms.  Pour in wine and sherry. 

Cover skillet, simmer chicken for 10 minutes, turning once, until no longer pink and juices run clear.
