Chicken Marsala is a popular Italian-American chicken dish made with Marsala wine and mushrooms. The name of the dish comes from one of the country’s most famous wines, Marsala, which is produced in Sicily, Italy. The taste profile of the wine is emphasized in this meal, giving it a deep and nutty richness. Even better, it comes together quickly, making it ideal for busy weeknights as well as weekend gatherings. I enjoy having a glass of Poggio Grande’s Scorbutico with this earthiness, savory recipe.
