Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pound the boneless, skinless chicken breast halves to an even 1/4-inch thickness.
  2. Melt butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken pieces and cook for about 5 minutes, turning once, until browned on both sides.
  4. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  5. In the same skillet with the remaining drippings, add asparagus spears and mushrooms.
  6. Sauté the vegetables, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes until slightly tender.
  7. Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it among the vegetables.
  8. Pour in Marsala wine, water, salt, and pepper.
  9. Bring the liquid to a boil and let it boil uncovered for 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
  10. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 3 minutes until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
  11. Transfer chicken to a serving platter.
  12. Spoon the warm vegetable sauce and mushrooms over the chicken.
