Chicken Marsala with Basil and Mushrooms

Ingredients

2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon McCormick® Gourmet Collection Garlic Powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon McCormick® Gourmet Collection Black Pepper, Coarse Grind
1 pound thinly sliced boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 cup Kitchen Basics® Original Chicken Stock
1/2 cup Marsala wine
1 teaspoon McCormick® Gourmet Collection Basil Leaves
1 teaspoon McCormick® Gourmet Collection Onion Powder

Directions

1. Mix flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper in shallow dish. Coat chicken in flour mixture. Reserve excess flour to use for thickening.

2. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil and butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add 1/2 of the chicken; cook 5 to 6 minutes or until browned on both sides. Remove from skillet. Repeat with remaining chicken.

3. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in skillet. Add mushrooms; cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken stock; stir to loosen any browned bits in bottom of skillet. Stir in wine, basil and onion powder. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes. If thicker sauce is desired, whisk in 1 to 2 teaspoons of the reserved flour. Return chicken to skillet; simmer until heated through. Serve over cooked pasta, if desired.
