I usually only try to improve recipes one at a time, but here, we're going to do two. We're making chicken Marsala better by doing the chicken Milanese-style, and we're going to improve chicken Milanese with the same amazing sauce that goes on chicken Marsala. The results were incredible. Serve with an arugula salad.

Ingredients

  • skinless, boneless chicken breast halves: 2 piece (6 ounce)
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper: (to taste)
  • pinch cayenne pepper: 1 piece (to taste)
  • all-purpose flour: 0.5 cup (or as needed)
  • egg: 1 piece (beaten)
  • ½ cups panko bread crumbs: 1 piece (divided, or more if needed)
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, freshly: 1 oz (grated, optional)
  • olive oil for frying: 0.25 cup
  • unsalted butter: 3 Tbsp
  • ounces brown mushrooms: 8 piece (sliced)
  • salt: (to taste)
  • all-purpose flour: 2 Tbsp
  • dry Marsala wine: 0.5 cup
  • lemon juice: 2 tsp
  • chicken broth: 2 cups
  • pinch ground black pepper: 1 piece
  • pinch cayenne pepper: 1 piece
  • flat-leaf (Italian) parsley: 1 Tbsp (chopped)

  3. Season chicken on both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, and cayenne, and transfer to a large plate. Sift flour over both sides of the chicken until the surface is completely coated. Transfer to a clean plate. ALLRECIPES / VICTORIA JEMPTY

  5. Pour the egg over the floured chicken and use a brush to paint evenly over the meat. Flip and repeat on the other side. Once chicken has been thoroughly coated with the egg, pick up each piece with tongs, letting the excess egg drip off, and place on the plate of panko. ALLRECIPES / VICTORIA JEMPTY

  6. Generously sprinkle panko over the top of the chicken and press in with your hands or tongs. Flip the chicken over, and sprinkle more panko over the top. Repeat until the chicken is well breaded all over. ALLRECIPES / VICTORIA JEMPTY

  11. Pour in Marsala and lemon juice and use a spatula or spoon to scrape any caramelization from the bottom of the pan. Pour in chicken broth and raise heat to medium-high. Season with black pepper and cayenne and bring to a simmer. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it reduces and thickens slightly. Keep hot until needed or let cool and reheat when needed. Before serving, some freshly chopped parsley can be stirred in. ALLRECIPES / VICTORIA JEMPTY
