Portions:  4

Serving size: One chicken breast, 1/2 cup rice, 2 tablespoons sauce

Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup all-purpose white flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup shallots, sliced
• 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley (leave some for garnish)

• 1/3 cup dry Marsala wine
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation

1. Coat chicken with flour. In a large skillet, cook chicken in hot oil over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, turning chicken over once.
2. Remove chicken from skillet, cover, and keep warm.
3. Sauté shallots, mushrooms and parsley in Olivio® over medium heat for about 3 minutes.
4. Add wine, garlic powder and black pepper. Cook while stirring for 1 to 2 minutes, then pour over chicken and add vegetables.
5. Sprinkle with parsley.

Helpful Hints

• Substitute 1/2 cup pasta with garlic and olive oil for rice if desired.
• Olivio® Premium Spread is a vegetable oil and olive oil blend made into a spread similar to trans fat-free margarine. One tablespoon contains 80 calories, 8 g fat, 0 g trans fat, 0 cholesterol, 95 mg sodium.  If unavailable in your area substitute a similar soft tub spread.
• If another wine is substituted, this dish becomes Chicken with Wine, as it will no longer have the distinct flavor provided by the Marsala wine.
• This recipe is suitable for those on a lower protein diet if the portion of chicken is decreased to match their meal plan.

Great recipe & provides a pleasing presentation as well as flavor. I used the "sweet" not dry marsala wine.

Tasteless. But, if served with something sweet like applesauce, it's ok. Nothing like real chicken marsala.
