Chicken Marsala

Ingredients :



 4 boneless, skinless chicken half breasts
1/4 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon oregano
4 tablespoons oil
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoons pepper
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 medium thinly sliced onion (optional)
1/2 cup Marsala wine


Combine flour, salt, pepper, and oregano and blend well. Heat the oil and butter in a skillet until bubbling lightly. Dredge the chicken in the flour and shake off the excess. Cook the chicken on medium heat for about 2 minutes on the first side, until lightly brown. As you turn the breasts to the second side to cook, add the mushrooms around the chicken pieces. Cook about 2 more minutes, until lightly browned on the second side. Stir the mushrooms and optional onions. When the second side is lightly browned, add the wine around the pieces, cover the pan and simmer for about 10 minutes.
