Chicken Marsala

Chicken Marsala

I grew up believing that Chicken Marsala was some centuries-old Italian recipe. But in adapting recipes I had tried and preparing this one for publication, my research revealed that this dish, just like Chicken Parmigiana, is likely a creation of some ambitious chef in the good ole United States that pulled out a bottle of Marsala, Sicily's famed fortified wine, poured a bit into the bubbling cauldron, and the rest is history. Whatever the origin, the complex flavor profile that includes the unique flavor imparted by the fortified wine, is one that will endure for centuries more.
