My review
4 Star Chicken "Marsala" ( with Zinfindel)
MELODIB
"Had this at a 4 star restaurant in my teens. Loved it so much, Mom got the recipe from the chef so she could make it for me. It has become a favorite of my kids, too. Now they know how to make it! This is not your lite chicken Marsala variety! Serve with oven-warmed French bread."

Ready In
- Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pan fry the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
- Place 2 ounces of mozzarella cheese on each chicken breast, then sprinkle parsley and capers on top. Reduce heat to medium, cover pan, and allow cheese to melt, about 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a large baking dish, and cover with aluminum foil.
- Keep the chicken warm in the preheated oven while you finish the sauce.
- Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl; set aside. Cook and stir the garlic over medium-low heat in the same skillet used to cook the chicken until fragrant, scraping up any bits of chicken and cheese, about 1 minute. Pour in the white Zinfandel wine, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce begins to thicken. Gradually stir the cornstarch mixture into the cream sauce until thickened. Season with salt and black pepper.
- To serve, pour the cream sauce over the chicken.

I used a red Zinfandel and I do not like any wine but it was great.

Loved this, it was easy and even though I used red Zinfandel instead of white, it was great. My husband even liked it and he always complains about chicken dishes.
