Easy Instant Pot Chicken Marsala
ats
Oh, how I used to love the chicken marsala from Olive Garden! Back in the day, I frequented the Olive Garden often. Before I became a “real foodie,” I had a thing for chain restaurants. Olive Garden was our hangout for so many lunches and dinners! I had my trio of favorites that I would rotate throughout my visits. I would usually order the chicken scampi, shrimp carbonara, or the infamous chicken marsala.
Chicken Marsala is an Italian dish that traditionally uses chicken cutlets. For the majority of my recipes with chicken breasts, I cut the breasts in half, horizontally to create cutlets. I did not do that for this recipe because the breasts I used were pretty small. You may want to consider this method, depending on the size of the chicken you have.
What wine is best to use for chicken marsala? Dry, marsala wine. Marsala wine has a deep, smokey flavor. It is perfect for really savory dishes like this one.
