Chicken Marsala

January 31, 2011

So, the Chicken Piccata was a huge hit! I thought that I would share with you another equally delicious dish. Again it can be a crowd pleaser with the kids; minus the sauce that is. I typically serve this with mashed potatoes but pasta works just as well. Even if you are not a big…
