Chicken Marsala           





Ingredients:
1 teaspoon canola oil
3/4 pound skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
4 shallots, chopped
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup dry Marsala wine
1 cup seedless green grapes, halved
1/4 cup minced parsley
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups hot cooked brown rice


Method:
1. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Add the chicken and cook, turning as needed, until lightly browned, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

2. Spray the same skillet with nonstick cooking spray; add the shallots and cook, stirring as needed, until soft­ened, about 5 minutes. Add the flour; cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the shallots, about 1 minute. Gradually stir in the broth and wine; cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture boils and thickens, about 2 minutes.

3. Stir in the chicken, grapes, parsley and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve the rice, topped with the chicken mixture.
