We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Set grill to high and preheat.

  • Step 2: Combine ingredients for the chicken spice in a small bowl. Use your fingers to crush the spices in the bowl, to make a finer blend. Set aside.

  • Step 3: Brush chicken breasts generously with olive oil. Sprinkle spice blend over both sides of chicken breast, and gently rub into meat. Set aside.

  • Step 4: Turn heat to medium and melt butter in a medium-size sauce pan. Turn heat up to medium-high and saute prosciutto for 2-3 minutes, making sure not to burn the butter.

  • Step 5: Add shallots and mushrooms, and saute for about until vegetables are tender.

  • Step 6: Add the garlic, and saute another 30 seconds.

  • Step 7: Add the Marsala wine, and simmer about 30 seconds, then add freshly ground pepper. Simmer over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Set aside.

  • Step 8: In a small bowl, dissolve corn starch in chicken stock. Add stock to the saucepan, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Add parsley and cream to the sauce, and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until thick. Remove from heat, and cover until needed.

  • Step 9: Grill the chicken pieces for 6-8 minutes per side, or until done. Turn chicken one quarter turn on each side while cooking, to make the criss cross grill marks on each side of the chicken.

  • Step 10: Arrange each chicken breast on a plate.

  • Step 11: Spoon 1/4 of the Marsala wine sauce over each serving of chicken, and serve.
