Chicken Marsala
That's marsala, not massala.
Howdy guys,
The recipe is simple, you just need a little judgement on the butter and
how much to cook it. Unfortunately you have to buy a bottle of sherry
or a bottle of marsala wine. But there's some nice marsalas out there
and sherry never goes amiss at Christmas!
Requires:
4 chicken breasts,
1 onion, sliced,
8 oz. salted butter,
Marsala wine or sweet cream sherry,
salt + pepper on chicken breast (plenty of pepper is usually good).
Brown the chicken breasts in about half of the butter (add more if required).
If possible try and brown the butter a little aswell, gives a nice taste.
Take out the chicken and put the rest of the butter in, give it a
little time to brown and then add the onions in for a few minutes,
until they start to go soft.
Then put the chicken breast back in and add 8 oz. sweet cream sherry
or marsala wine.
If it's looking a bit thick add a little bit of water, simmer for a while.
Serve with either rice or potatos, with some veg. I suggest slightly
burnt green beans with carrots. Asparagus is also a nice one.
Freezing/refrigerating the chicken + sauce is fine, just oven it up
afterwards. It can even make it taste better as the sauce gets right
into the chicken
Cheers,
Stew.
