What is Marsala wine?
Marsala wine is a type of fortified Italian wine widely used in Italian (especially Sicilian) cooking. It's commonly used to create rich, caramelized sauces and elevate the flavors of various dishes. There are various types of Marsala wine – red, white, sweet, and dry.
Serving suggestions
This dish would pair perfectly with oven-roasted green beans, oven-roasted vegetables with a good drizzle of olive oil, cauliflower rice, or with your favorite low-carb pasta.

Be careful. The chicken should be removed from the pan between steps two and three. It is returned to the pan at step 5 which is noted in the instructions but the instructions fail to tell you to set the chicken aside when that should be done.
