Chicken Marsala Sandwich

Chicken Marsala Sandwich

Total Time: 30 minutes

Yield: 4 servings

This is an EXCELLENT recipe. We used marsala wine and Havarti cheese. I think it was in the cooking aisle.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • salt and pepper, if desired
  • 1 lb chicken breast cut for scaloppini by butcher (or 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts pounded to 1/8-inch thickness)
  • 1 can (6 oz) sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1/2 cup marsala (sweet) wine or apple juice
  • 1 can (18.5 oz) Classics French onion soup
  • 4 kaiser rolls
  • 4 oz Fontina cheese, sliced, shaved or grated
  • 1 tablespoon parsley flakes, if desired

Instructions

  1. In small microwavable bowl, mix oil and garlic. Microwave on High 1 minute; set aside. Place flour on plate; stir in salt and pepper. Coat chicken with flour, shaking off excess.
  2. In 12-inch nonstick skillet (1 1/2 inches deep), place 1 tablespoon of the heated oil without garlic pieces. Heat oil over medium-high heat 1 to 2 minutes or until hot but not smoking. Add chicken, cutting large pieces in half, if necessary, so all chicken fits in skillet; cook 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until no longer pink in center and golden brown. Remove chicken from skillet; place on plate and cover to keep warm.
  3. In same skillet, cook mushrooms over medium-high heat 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly heated. Stir in wine and soup with heatproof rubber spatula or wooden spoon to scrape up brown bits from bottom of skillet. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly heated.
  4. Meanwhile, set oven control to broil. Split rolls; place cut side up on large cookie sheet. Broil 6 to 8 inches from heat 1 to 2 minutes or until toasted and golden brown. Brush cut sides with remaining oil mixture with garlic pieces; top evenly with fontina cheese. Broil 30 to 60 seconds or until cheese is melted.
  5. Return chicken to skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered 2 to 3 minutes, turning chicken occasionally, until chicken is coated with sauce. Divide chicken evenly among rolls. With slotted spoon, divide mushrooms and onions over chicken. Pour wine sauce into 4 (4-oz) ramekins or dipping bowls. Sprinkle parsley on individual plates; place sandwiches and ramekins of sauce for dipping on plates.
