Description

A delicious and romantic dish featuring chicken marsala pasta in a rich red wine sauce, perfect for Valentine’s Day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Marsala wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add garlic and mushrooms, sautéing until mushrooms are tender.
  5. Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and return the chicken to the skillet. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu or additional mushrooms.
  • Pair with a side salad and garlic bread for a complete meal.
  • Adjust the amount of Marsala wine to taste.
