  • 24 fluid ounces Marsala Wine
  • 8 fluid ounces Heavy Cream
  • 2 small containers Button Mushrooms thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
  • Salt and freshly ground Black Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.

Cheese Stuffing

  • Combine all cheese stuffing ingredients in a mixing bowl. Mix well. Set aside.

Chicken

  • Butterfly thickest section of chicken breasts to create 2 lobes.
  • Pound each breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap until 1/4 - 1/2-inch thick.
  • Place flattened chicken breasts on a plate.
  • Place desired amount of cheese stuffing on one lobe of each chicken breast. Gently press stuffing down so it resembles a hockey puck.
  • Fold over other lobe of chicken breast - It does not have to seal.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat.
  • Add olive oil. Heat until shimmering.
  • Place flour in a shallow pan. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Dredge stuffed chicken breasts in flour, shaking off excess.
  • Sauté chicken breasts with preheated oil, cooking until each side is golden brown.
  • Remove chicken from pan and place in a baking dish.
  • Bake, in preheated oven, for 10 - 20 minutes, or until juices run clean and center of chicken reaches 165°F.
  • Add onions to sauté pan and stir to loosen chicken drippings.
  • After 2 minutes, add mushrooms. Sauté until onions are translucent.

Sauce

  • Deglaze pan with Marsala wine – make sure to scrape flavorful drippings from bottom of pan.
  • Heat wine to a simmer.
  • Add heavy cream. Simmer on low heat until reduced by half.

  • Top each with sauce. Be sure to include several onions and mushrooms on each.
