Description

This classic Italian-American dish features tender chicken or veal cutlets pan-seared to golden perfection and simmered in a luxurious sauce made with dry Marsala wine and earthy mushrooms. The result is a restaurant-quality meal that comes together in under 40 minutes, making it ideal for busy weeknights or special dinners. The sweet-tangy wine reduction pairs beautifully with the savory mushrooms, creating a glossy, flavorful coating for the meat. Serve over buttered egg noodles, risotto, or mashed potatoes for a comforting and elegant meal that feels indulgent yet simple to prepare.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pound chicken or veal cutlets to an even 1/4-inch thickness if necessary, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge the cutlets in flour, shaking off any excess.
  3. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Sauté the cutlets in batches until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd the pan.
  5. Remove cooked cutlets from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  6. In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are wilted and have released their moisture.
  7. Add the smashed garlic cloves and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  8. Pour in the dry Marsala wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  9. Add chicken broth and simmer the sauce for 2-3 minutes until slightly reduced and glossy.
  10. Return the cutlets to the skillet, spooning sauce over them.
  11. Simmer gently for 3-5 minutes until the meat is cooked through and heated through.
  12. Serve immediately over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
