CHICKEN MARSALA AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium-size skillet set over high heat. Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper to taste and dredge in flour. Place 2 of the chicken pieces in the pan and cook until nicely browned, about 2 minutes per side. Add another tablespoon of oil and the remaining chicken pieces. As chicken is cooked, set aside on a plate and loosely tent with foil to keep it warm.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the skillet, add the mushrooms and shallot and cook until the mushrooms are tender and beginning to brown. Add the Marsala wine and cook until reduced by half. Stir in the veal glaze or stock and heat for 1 minute.
• Remove from heat and swirl in the butter until melted. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and pour the sauce from the skillet over the chicken. Garnish with chervil or parsley and serve.

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH SAUTEED MUSHROOMS MARSALA

Steps:

• Place chicken-breast halves between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. With meat mallet or rolling pin, pound breasts to an even 1/2-inch thickness.
• Beat eggs well in shallow plate. Place chicken breasts in egg mixture; let stand for 30 minutes.
• Season flour with salt, pepper and oregano. Drain the chicken and dredge well.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and is foamy (it should not be brown), place the egg/flour coated chicken into the skillet. Cook for approximately 4 minutes per side, turning over only once. Cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer pink in color throughout.
• Transfer the chicken breasts to a platter; cover with foil to keep warm.
• Add the chopped bacon to the skillet and cook until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove and drain on a plate covered with several layers of paper towels.
• Next, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet until foamy. Add the mushrooms, shallot, and 1/4 teaspoons salt. (Add a little more olive oil if the pan seems too dry.) Saute for 3 minutes, or until the shallots soften and the mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally. Make sure to scrape up any bits left in the bottom of the skillet from the chicken and bacon. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl.
• Pour off any oil from the skillet, add the chicken broth, Marsala wine, lemon juice and any juices from the platter of chicken. Turn the heat to high and bring the sauce to a vigorous simmer. Continue cooking about 3 - 4 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens and is reduced by one-third, stirring occasionally. Whisk in the remaining butter.
• Lower heat to a slow simmer; return the mushrooms and chicken to the skillet and coat with sauce.
• Serve immediately. Spoon sauce and mushrooms over the chicken breasts; sprinkle with some of the cooked bacon and the snipped basil. Garnish with lemon wedges.
• COOK'S TIP: If choosing to serve over thin spaghetti, drain the pasta and tossed it in the sauce for the last minute or two of cooking.

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, the honey, mustard, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt; whisk until smooth. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then add to the mixture, coating it well. Set aside at room temperature, stirring it once while you make the onions.
• Heat a 12-inch cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high until very hot, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then add the onions in an even layer. Season with salt, then cook, mostly undisturbed, for 4 minutes more, stirring every minute or so. Add the mushrooms, season with salt, and stir to combine. (It will look crowded, and that's OK.) Allow to cook mostly undisturbed until the mushrooms shrink and start to brown, about 4 minutes, stirring every minute or so.
• Stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and allow the onions to cook until they start to color, stirring and lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning, about 2 minutes. Push the onions and mushrooms to the edges of the skillet, then add the chicken pieces to the center. Pour any remaining marinade (there will be very little) over the onions and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then combine the chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes more. (Reduce the heat to medium if the onions look like they are burning at any point.)
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons sherry vinegar, stirring and scraping up anything on the bottom of the skillet. Season to taste with salt.
• Remove from the heat and top with the parsley and cheese, if using. Serve with bread or pasta.
