Easy Chicken Marsala

This is super duper easy and good too! 

4 thin sliced chicken breasts seasoned with sea salt and cracked black pepper
1/4 cup marsala wine
1/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
2 cups of mushrooms - mixture
2 teaspoons flour
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Heat oil in pan on high.  Place seasoned chicken breasts in pan.  Heat about 3 minutes per side.  Remove from heat and keep warm.  Add mushrooms to pan and cook about 3 minutes.  Add flour stirring until well blended.  Then add wine and broth.  Stir until you see it thicken.  Once thick spoon over top of breasts.


A nice side to this is roasted red bliss potatoes.  Cut potatoes into quarters.  Season with sea salt, cracked black pepper, Italian seasoning, and olive oil.  Toss all together and bake in oven 400 degrees for 30 minutes.  

Rice with Beans, chicken, and sausage

We love rice and beans in this house (well the adults do, anyway).   A nice change is using Yellow Rice.  So here goes.
1 box yellow rice (Goya)
4 oz. cooked chicken
1 andouille sausage
1 can black beans (Goya)

Cook rice according to package directions.  Heat beans, sausage, and chicken in microwave safe dish.  Mix all together and enjoy!!!  (Completely forgot that I added some pre-cooked shrimp too!)
