    Recipe Circus

    List of Ingredients




    For the Marsala Sauce

    1 tablespoon cold water
    2 teaspoons cornstarch
    1 ½ cups sweet Marsala wine (see Tip)
    ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
    1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste

    To complete the recipe

    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    Dash of salt
    16 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch lengthwise strips
    2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    3 portabella mushrooms (about 6 ounces), stems removed, then sliced vertically into ½-inch slices
    ¼ cup minced shallots
    8 ounces (about 4 cups) wide egg noodles
    Freshly ground pepper and sprigs of fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish

    Recipe



    To prepare the noodles, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat.

    To make the sauce, in a small bowl or measuring cup, stir to dissolve the cornstarch in the water. Stir in the remaining ingredients; set aside.

    Combine the flour, pepper, and salt in a small shallow bowl. Lightly press both sides of each chicken strip into the mixture.

    Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Arrange the chicken strips in a single layer; cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until they are lightly browned but not cooked through.


    Using tongs, transfer the chicken to a plate and cover to keep warm.

    Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the sauté pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots; cook, stirring and turning the mushrooms occasionally, for about 3 minutes, or until the mushrooms are lightly browned but not tender. Stir the sauce and pour it over the mushrooms; cook, stirring, for about 1 minute, or until the sauce becomes clear and thickens slightly.

    Stir in the chicken. Cover and cook for about 8 minutes, or until it is cooked through at the thickest points.

    While the chicken is cooking, add the noodles to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until tender; drain well.

    To assemble the servings, spoon a bed of noodles onto 4 plates. Top with chicken strips and mushrooms; drizzle with the sauce. Garnish and serve.

    Makes 4 servings
