You can use a mixture of button, shiitake, crimini, and baby bella mushrooms for this dish. Using a whisk to mix the flour with the seasonings guarantees an even blending. You might have to pound the chicken to get it to the correct thickness.
Start the Garlic Mashed Potatoes first. While the potatoes are cooking, prepare Chicken Marsala.
Chicken Marsala
Servings
4 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour or potato starch for Passover
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 2 cups assorted thinly-sliced mushrooms
- 1 ½ pounds chicken cutlets cut in ¼-inch strips
- ½ cup Marsala wine or any white wine
- ¼ cup chicken broth
Instructions
- Combine flour, thyme, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl.
- In a 12-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium high heat. Add mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes.
- Transfer the mushrooms to a small bowl and set aside.
- Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the skillet. Dip chicken in flour mixture. Shake off excess flour and place chicken in hot oil. Do not crowd chicken or it will steam instead of brown. Cook for 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Once all of the chicken has been cooked, add wine to the skillet, stirring up all of the browned bits and pieces. Increase heat to high and continue cooking for 2 minutes.
- Stir in broth, and cook for 3 minutes more or until sauce thickens. Return mushrooms to pan and heat through.
- Pour sauce over chicken and serve with Garlic Mashed Potatoes.

Would you use less potato starch than flour in this recipe? I know when thickening sauces I use half as much potato starch.
I would use the same, it is to coat the chicken so you kind of need it.
