Chicken Marsala & Angel Hair

Recipe Directions

1. For best results, take the chicken out of the refrigerator 10 minutes before starting to cook. If you skip this step, you may need to cook the chicken longer than this recipe card indicates.
2. Fill a 4-6 quart pot 2/3 full with water. Put the pot on the stove over high heat. Add 2 tbsp of salt to the water. (The water should taste salty). Bring the water up to a boil.;While you are waiting for the water to boil, cut open the package of chicken (a) and place on a plate. Season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 of the herbed flour (b) on top of the chicken. Use your hands to spread the flour around and press down so the flour stays on the meat. Flip the chicken over and repeat with the remaining flour.
3. Heat a skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. When the pan has warmed up, add 1 tbsp of olive oil or enough to coat the bottom of the pan. Place the chicken in the pan and sear for 3 minutes on each side. (If you are preparing 3+ servings, cook in batches. Between each batch, carefully wipe the hot pan out with a cloth or paper towel and add more oil).
4. When all of the chicken is cooked, add it back to the pan along with the mushrooms and onions (c). Season the vegetables with a pinch of salt and pepper. Use a wooden spoon to spread the vegetables out around the chicken. Cook for 3 minutes.
5. Now pour the marsala sauce (d) over the chicken and vegetables and bring the sauce up to a simmer. Once simmering, turn the heat to medium or medium-low to maintain a low boil. Simmer for 6 minutes. (If the sauce reduces too much, add 1-2 tbsp of water to the pan).
6. While the chicken marsala is simmering, add the angel hair (e) to the pot of boiling water. Cook for 4 minutes, then drain in a strainer in your sink. Put the empty pot you were using back on the stove over low heat. Add the garlic herb butter (f) to the pot. Stir continuously until the butter is melted. Then add the angel hair back to the pot and stir well to coat the pasta with butter.
7. Spoon the angel hair into serving bowls. Serve the chicken marsala on top.
