Gluten Free Chicken Marsala

One of my favorite dishes is Chicken Marsala.  Of course it's coated in bread crumbs and it's so good!  Well, I only have to really change the breading mixture and we were good to go.  I must say this was even better than the real thing.  I'm not sure what it was but it was DELICIOUS!!!!


Ingredients:

2-3 chicken breasts
Gluten Free bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
2-3 Tablespoons butter
Container of sliced mushrooms
one small onion
1/2 cup marsala wine
3/4 cup gluten free chicken broth
black pepper to taste

So...

I used two large chicken breast, sliced very thin into about 6 thin breasts.  After pounding the breasts down, I decided to try the Schar bread crumbs that my mom bought me.  This was the first time I used them and they were very good. 


I heated a little bit of canola oil in a large pan and coated the chicken with the breading.  I just threw the breading in a ziploc bag and tossed the chicken in.  Once the oil was hot, I browned the chicken on both sides and transferred them to a plate to use later. 

After that I cleaned out the pan since I didn't want all the residue and oil from the fried chicken.  I added a teaspoon of olive oil and 2-3 tablespoons of butter and heated until the butter was melted.  Now I never said this was a low fat recipe...lol...just gluten free. Add the mushrooms and cook for a couple mins until soft. Chop up the onion and add to the pan.

Cook the onion until soft.  Add the marsala wine and cook for a couple of mins. 



                                                                                                                                                               Add the chicken broth.  Stir everythingtogether and then add the chicken breasts again.  Simmer for a couple mins until the chicken is hot and the inside is cooked. 


I served over Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes and yum!  a great gluten free meal!  ENJOY!!!

Gluten Free Valentine's cookies


These are the Bob's Redmill Cookies I made for Valentine's Day last week.  I iced them with
cookie icing to make them cuter and a little more appealing.  They were gone within  a day so I guess
they were good!  LOL

I'm back...

a new blog makeover thanks to Sahlin Studio and Jenn Barrette's Digital Scrapbooking Kit Kitschy Kitchen.  I adapted the background and make the topper using this kit.  If you want to buy it, it can be found at The Lily Pad

So Valentine's Day is tomorrow and Ben informed me today that I have to make a cake for his class tomorrow.  I'm confused though because i'm not sure if it's just for him or for the whole class so I am making a whole cake just in case. I'm sure it's just for him since usually the teachers inform me they are having a party and I just bring in some cupcakes for him to enjoy.  We also have some friends coming over this evening and I wanted to make cookies.  I've never tried the Cherrybrook Kitchen Sugar Cookie Mix so I decided this was the way to go.  I am going to make some pink icing for the kids to decorate the cookies later with so they have something to do.  4 boys...you have to keep them busy!  I will post the cookies later so you can all see.  It's nice to have some cookie/cake mix options because sometimes I just don't have the will or the time to cook from scratch.


until later...
