Tender pan-seared chicken breasts are smothered in a luxurious sauce of earthy chanterelle mushrooms and sweet Marsala wine. The deep, woody notes of the mushrooms pair beautifully with the rich reduction for a truly sophisticated dinner. This restaurant-quality meal is perfect for a special occasion or a refined weekend treat.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 85 g Chicken Breast Half, skinless boneless
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 2 cup Chanterelle Mushroom, sliced
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 1/4 tsp Salt Black Pepper, ground
  • 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1/4 cup Marsala Wine
  • 1/2 tsp Tarragon, crushed

Instructions

  1. Stir flour and paprika together in a shallow dish. Remove and set aside 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture for later use. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture to coat evenly.
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chanterelle mushrooms in melted butter until they release their liquid and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
  3. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Cook the chicken breasts in the melted butter until browned, about 3 minutes per side; season with salt and pepper.
  4. Return the cooked mushrooms to the skillet and stir in chicken broth, reserved 1 tablespoon of flour-paprika mixture, Marsala wine, and dried tarragon. Place a cover on the skillet, reduce heat to low, and cook until the sauce is thick, the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chicken breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
