Ingredients

Chicken

  • 1½–2 lb thin chicken cutlets
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp coarse black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Olive oil, for frying

Marsala Mushroom Sauce

  • 3 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 1 package cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 package portobello mushrooms, sliced
  • 3–4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • ½ cup Marsala wine
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 2 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp silan
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp dried parsley flakes, plus more for finishing
  • Coarse black pepper, to taste
  • Salt, only if needed
  • Creamy mashed potatoes, for serving

Directions

  1. Combine the flour, salt, coarse black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  2. Dredge the chicken on both sides, shaking off any excess flour mixture.
  3. Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a large skillet. Fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, then transfer it to a plate.
  4. Leave approximately 1 Tbsp olive oil in the skillet. Add the shallots and sauté until golden.
  5. Add the cremini and portobello mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat until nicely browned.
  6. Add the crushed garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, and dried parsley flakes. Sauté for approximately 30 seconds.
  7. Pour in the Marsala wine and scrape up all the flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow it to bubble and reduce for 2–3 minutes.
  8. Add the chicken broth, teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, silan, onion powder, and coarse black pepper.
  9. Simmer for 5–7 minutes, until rich, glossy, and slightly thickened. Taste before adding salt.
  10. Return the chicken to the skillet. Spoon the mushrooms and sauce over the chicken and simmer for 1–2 minutes.
