CHICKEN MARSALA BAKE

My Marsala bake is a little different from the "normal" potluck dish, so it's a nice change of pace to take to dinners. The best part: I serve it with fried polenta slices, so it's completely gluten-free and perfect for my husband, who has celiac disease. -Deborah Stevens, Goodyear, Arizona

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups uncooked penne pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 1/2 teaspoons butter
2 1/2 tablespoons flour
1 cup marsala wine
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided
2 grilled sliced chicken breasts
4 ounces prosciutto, sliced
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Cook pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and prosciutto. Cook until lightly crisp on the edges, about 5 minutes. Remove the prosciutto to a paper towel lined plate. In the same skillet, add the mushrooms and garlic. Cook until mushrooms darken slightly and juices are released. Remove to a plate.
  • In the same saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute or until bubbly. Stir in the Marsala and bring to a boil for 1 minute. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the parmesan until melted. Remove from heat and add cream and milk. Stir in mushrooms, prosciutto and chicken.
  • Add pasta to the baking dish. Top with sauce and lightly mix into the pasta. Top with reserved parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until the cheese melts and starts to turn golden.
  • Remove from oven and top with chopped parsley.

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy, golden-brown crust on the chicken, make sure to sear it in a hot skillet before baking. This will help to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a high-quality Marsala wine for the best flavor. A dry Marsala is a good choice, as it will add a rich, nutty flavor to the sauce.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of garlic and herbs in the recipe to suit your taste. If you like a more garlicky flavor, add an extra clove or two. If you prefer a more herbal flavor, add a few more sprigs of thyme or rosemary.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken Marsala is best when the chicken is cooked through but still tender and juicy. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Serve Chicken Marsala with a side of your favorite pasta, rice, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken Marsala is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great dish to serve to guests. The combination of tender chicken, flavorful Marsala sauce, and creamy mushrooms is sure to please everyone at the table.
