"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Copycat Olive Garden Chicken Marsala
Prep time: 20 mins
Cook time: 45 mins
Total time: 1 hour 5 mins
Serves: 4 servings


Chicken
• 4 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• Salt/Pepper to taste
• ½ cup olive oil
Stuffing
• ½ cup smoked shredded cheese (provolone or gouda)
• 8 oz. mozzarella cheese, shredded
• Ό cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• ½ cup breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp fresh garlic, minced
• Ό tsp red pepper flakes, crushed
• 2 Tablespoon sun-dried tomato flakes (drain first if in oil)
• ⅓ cup green onions, thinly sliced
• Ύ cup sour cream (6 oz.)
Sauce
• 1 small onion, sliced into strings
• 4 cups Marsala Wine
• 1 (8 oz.) container heavy cream
• 2 small containers button mushrooms, thinly sliced

Directions:
Directions:
1. Combine all stuffing ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
3. Butterfly the chicken by slicing the side of the thickest part of each chicken breast to create 2 lobes.
4. Lay the chicken down, covering the top with wax paper. Pound it gently until it’s thinned to Ό - ½ inches thick.
5. Place Ό of the stuffing inside of each of the chicken breasts. Coat the outside of each chicken breast with salt, pepper, and then the flour.
6. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Place each chicken inside of the skillet and cook until each side is a nice golden brown color.
7. Remove the chicken and place it in a baking dish. Bake it for 15-20 minutes, or until the inside is cooked through.
8. Within the skillet where the chicken cooked, add the onions and scrape up the chicken drippings, letting the onions cook in them for about 2 minutes. Then add the mushrooms and continue to Sautee until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
9. Deglaze the pan by adding the wine and bringing it to a light simmer. Add the half and half and let it bubble gently. You’ll want the wine to reduce by half. As you continue to cook the sauce and as the onions caramelize, the sauce will continue to get more and more brown and delicious.
10. Once the sauce is rich and brown, serve it over the chicken and with some garlic mashed potatoes
