2-3 servings

40 min 20 min prep

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
kosher salt
pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 ounces cremini mushrooms or white mushrooms, sliced 1/8 inch thick (2 1/4 cups)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup dry marsala
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 ounces crumbled gorgonzola
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley

Slice chicken on an angle into 3/4 inch pieces; season generously with salt and pepper.

In a 10 inch straight sided saute pan, heat 2 TBL of oil over medium high heat; saute half of the chicken turning once until lightly browned and barely cooked through- about 1-2 minutes per side; Transfer cooked chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm; repeat with remaining chicken.

Return pan to medium high heat and add remaining 1 TBL oil.

Add mushrooms, season and saute stirring with a wooden spoon until softened and well browned- 3-4 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and cook stirring for 30 seconds.

Add Marsala and scrape pan to loosen brown bits; simmer until slightly reduced- about 2 minutes.

Stir in cream and simmer until thickened slightly- 2-3 minutes.

Add 2/3 of the gorgonzola and stir until melted- 1-2 minutes.

Taste sauce and adjust seasoning.

Add chicken along with any accumulated juices and turn to coat with sauce.

Serve immediately, sprinkled with remaining cheese and parsley.
