Andrea Fischbach of Atlanta sent in a recipe for Chicken Marsala that is great for a weeknight at home or elegant enough for entertaining. Fischbach writes: “I made the most delicious dish last night. I sautéed chicken breast and then added Marsala wine and cream. It was so easy, but so tasty.”
I took the liberty of adding sliced wild mushrooms and coating the chicken with flour to give the sauce a little more body. The combination of cream and wild mushroom dresses it up without making it fussy.
