Ingredients
2 - 3 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (I use Tasty Bird breast tenderloins)3 Cloves garlic (crushed and minced)2 medium shallots (equal to 4 tbsp) minced8 tbsp Marsala cooking wine2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oik1 tbsp unsalted butter2 tbsp oregano (I use fresh, if you use dry cut amount in half)
Directions
place chicken in a large ziplock bag. Pound unitl 1/4 of an inch thin. This helps make the portion size seem larger, it cooks faster and is very tender.
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet. Cook chicken until browned on both sides (about 6 minutes total)
Remove chicken and keep warm in oven.
Add remaining olive oil to pan saute shallots and garlic until they soften a bit (about 3 minutes).
Deglaze pan with marsala.
Add mushrooms and reduce heat until the sauce thickens (about 6-8 minutes).
Add butter and oregano just before serving.
Pour sauce over chicken and heat through..enjoy.
