Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create cutlets. Pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

  2. 2

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter to the skillet. Add the minced shallots and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. 5

    Pour in the Marsala wine and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has reduced by about half, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. About 5-7 minutes.
