I received this recipe from a family friend at my bridal shower and I have been making it for guests ever since. The combination of Marsala wine, Dijon mustard, and Mascarpone make a delicious broth. I typically serve this over brown basmati rice. Perfect for a cold winter evening.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 lbs. chicken cutlets (I use thin-sliced), cut each piece in three
• 2 tbsp. EVOO
• 5 tbsp. butter, divided
• 3/4 c. chopped onion
• 1 lb. sliced mushrooms
• 2 tbsp. minced garlic
• 1 c. Marsala wine
• 8 oz. Mascarpone cheese
• 2 tbsp. Dijon mustard

Directions:

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Brown chicken in hot oil, about 4 min. on each side. Transfer to plate. Melt 2 tbsp. butter in same skillet over medium-high heat, add onion and saute until tender, about 2 min. Add mushrooms and garlic and saute until mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate about 12 min. Add wine and simmer until it is reduced by half, about 4 min. Stir in mascarpone and mustard. Cut chicken 1/3 ” thick slices. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to skillet. Simmer, uncovered, over medium-low heat until chicken is cooked through and sauce thickens slightly, about 2 min. Stir in chopped parsley (if desired). Season sauce with salt and pepper and serve over pasta or rice.
