Chicken Marsala Penne step by step
- Makes: 4-6 servings
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet until foaming. Cook chicken until lightly browned. Transfer to plate when done.
Boil water and cook pasta according to the directions.
Melt additional 1 tablespoon of butter in skillet, add garlic, mushrooms and onion and cook for about 6 minutes. Add cooked chicken back into the skillet. Add the Marsala, chicken broth and cream and bring to a boil. Simmer until sauce is is slightly thickened.
Drain pasta and reserve 1/2 cup cooking water. Return the pasta to the pot with the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the mushrooms and chicken mixture and 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and cook until the pasta has absorbed some of the sauce, about 1 minute, adding the reserved cooking water as needed.
Season with salt and pepper and serve with additional Parmesan cheese and a garnish of chopped parsley..
*I made a topping out of the chopped parsley by mixing : 1 tbs of olive oil, 1 chopped roma tomato, 2 fresh minced garlic cloves, & less than 1/4 cup of chopped parsley. (optional).
