Delicious and easy! I didn't have mushrooms so I used broccoli. Can't wait to try this again with baby bellas. I seasoned the chicken before dredging it and added some crushed garlic to the pan while it browned.

Wish I could give this 10 stars. All my guests RAVED about this and my husband insists I make it again and again and again. The chicken turned out moist and tender and the marsala sauce put it over the top. This is a keeper, cooking with love, thanks for making my dinner party a huge success.
