Creamy Chicken Marsala with Prosciutto

Ingredients
Ingredient Checklist
1 pound chicken cutlets, trimmed
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
¼ teaspoon salt, divided
¼ cup white whole-wheat flour
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 ounces prosciutto, chopped (½ cup)
8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
¼ cup minced shallots
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup Marsala wine (see Tip)
Chopped fresh parsley for Directions
Step 1
Season chicken with 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Place flour in a shallow dish and dredge the chicken in it, pressing gently to help it adhere. Discard any excess flour.

Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, flipping once, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

Step 3
Add prosciutto to the pan and cook, scraping up any browned bits, for 30 seconds. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in shallots, garlic, thyme and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring often, until the shallot is translucent, about 1 minute. Stir in broth, cream and Marsala, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes.

Step 4
Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan. Cook, flipping the cutlets occasionally, until hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
