- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts for a lean source of protein

- 1 cup of all-purpose flour for a flavorful coating

- 2-3 teaspoons of salt for a balanced taste

- 1-2 teaspoons of freshly ground black pepper for a touch of spice

- 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil for a perfect sear

- 2-3 tablespoons of unsalted butter for richness

- 8 ounces of cremini or white mushrooms, sliced for a savory touch

- 1/2 cup of Marsala wine for depth and flavor

- 1/2 cup of chicken broth for a savory base

- 1/4 cup of fresh parsley, chopped for a burst of freshness

- A pinch of love (because every recipe needs some)

Season the chicken breasts with 2-3 teaspoons of salt and 1-2 teaspoons of freshly ground black pepper.

Dredge each chicken breast in the all-purpose flour, making sure to coat them evenly. This creates a flavorful and presentable coating.

In a large skillet, heat 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

In the same skillet, add 2-3 tablespoons of unsalted butter and sliced mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms until they are tender and slightly browned.

Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth. Stir and scrape the skillet to incorporate all the flavorful bits. Simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened.

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and let them simmer in the sauce for an additional 5-7 minutes to absorb the rich Marsala flavor.

Garnish with fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness. This step makes the dish even more flavorful and presentable.
