Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

02

Step

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour and garlic-herb seasoning blend. Dredge each chicken breast lightly in the seasoned flour, ensuring an even coating.

03

Step

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Working in batches of 4, add the floured chicken breasts to the skillet and brown for 3-4 minutes per side, adding more butter as needed to prevent sticking. Transfer the browned chicken to the prepared baking dish.

04

Step

Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are lightly browned and tender, approximately 5 minutes. Distribute the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the chicken breasts in the baking dish.

05

Step

Pour the Marsala wine and chicken broth into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a spoon. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and the flavors to meld. Spoon the sauce evenly over the chicken and mushrooms.

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, allowing the chicken to cook through and the flavors to meld.

07

Step

Remove the baking dish from the oven. In a separate bowl, combine the Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses. Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown, and the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).

For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of cremini and shiitake mushrooms.
If you don't have Marsala wine, a dry sherry can be used as a substitute.
Serve immediately over a bed of rice, pasta, or creamy mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
