Why is this cookbook so Amazing?
Well, I just got a copy of America’s Secret Recipes and to be honest with you, all i can say at this time is wow!. At first I had to ask myself, can this really be done? So my husband and I sat down at the kitchen table and flipped through this book. We both love Olive Garden, so we got started making their Chicken Marsala. Now trust me I had my doubts (my cooking is not that popular), but to my suprise it came out 10 times better compared to the restaurant.
And to give you a little taste of this book…here is the Chicken Marsala recipe!
Description: Lightly coated chicken breasts skillet fried with sauteed mushrooms in a Marsala sauce.
Ingredients
1/4 cup cake flour (Wondra)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano
4 tablespoons oil
4 tablespoons butter
4 chicken half breasts – boneless, skinless
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup Marsala wine
Directions
1. In shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper and oregano; stir to blend.
2. In heavy skillet, heat oil and butter until butter melts and mixture bubbles lightly.
3. Dredge chicken in seasoned flour; shake off excess; saute in pan 2 minutes for the first side or until lightly browned; as you turn chicken, add mushrooms around the chicken pieces. Cook about 2 more minutes, until lightly browned on the second side; stir mushrooms. Once the second side is lightly browned, add wine around the pieces; cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
4. Transfer to plates and serve.
Serves 4
The Verdict
I would get to Ron’s website ASAP. This is one of those things that you’ll be kicking yourself later for not getting when you had the chance!
