Recipe Note for Chicken Marsala
- If you do not have enough time to brown the chicken breasts, then you do not need to, however, it will help with the overall taste.
- If you do not have “Marsala-Wine”, then you may utilize madeira, sherry, dry-white-wine, or port. Please bear in mind that using anything besides Dry Marsala Wine will change the classic taste.
- Attempt to use DRY Marsala Wine. Sweet Marsala Wine is for desserts. If you do not need to use wine, then you may use low-sodium chicken-broth, rather. I would recommend chicken broth for the those that are watching their carbs, calories and/or are about a Keto dietplan.
