This skillet keto chicken marsala is super easy to make and loaded with flavor! The creamy marsala and mushroom sauce is restaurant quality in only 30 minutes!
I love getting chicken marsala whenever I visit an Italian restaurant but the restaurant version usually has chicken dredged in flour and the sauce may be thickened with flour. I prefer my version that is flour free! Most people serve chicken marsala with potatoes, pasta, or rice. I prefer to serve mine with green beans or broccoli!
What I love most about this keto chicken marsala is that it is ready in about 30 minutes. This is accomplished because we are not using a breading and we are using chicken cutlets instead of full size chicken breasts.
A chicken cutlet is a chicken breast that has been cut in half lengthwise. This lets the chicken cook much more quickly.
