The dish should be made with paper thin Chicken or Veal. Normally I like many of things they do but this? Pancetta is not typically used. Way many mushrooms. They took a great crowd pleasing Simple dish and made it way too complicated. Go see Lydia make it.
Kind of a complicated chicken Marsala recipe compared to others I’ve seen. It does look like perfection though
What can you substitute for the tomato paste? I am allergic (anaphylaxis allergic).
I’ve bought that citrus juicer. Definitely pricier than Walmarts, but I’ve never looked back. That thing eats lemons for breakfast.
Hello
I want to make chicken marsala, but I hate mushrooms and red wine… Help!!! I think I would use skin on, bone in chicken thighs instead of the breasts for more flavor… Your thoughts …
My favorite recipe this is the best recipe that ever see definitely I gone make tank you for scering 👍❤️
Made this recipe and it was okay… felt like something was missing but overall tasty. I think maybe some MSG to the chicken would help the otherwise mild flavor.
Bridget is hot.
What can I use in place of gelatin? I don't eat beef or pork products.
I know it's a red wine based recipe, but can I make this with a lot less wine & mushrooms and more tomatoes?
Todo muy rico ,
Nice rendition of Rao’s lemon chicken, but their version is very simple. I’ve been making it for years. I add lemon zest as well to their recipe.
Chicken marsala does need a bit of sweetness. 🙂
We're going to boil this down to a cup and a half… In 6-8 minutes… What kind of magic stove do you have there? Specially when you never turned the stove on…
Love the recipes and the show. These recipes make too much food. How about doing a program based on the Complete Cooking For Two Cookbook?
Hello!
I love this two ladies! This show is my guide in the kitchen, I have tried so many of these recipes, always thumbs up from my wife and kids! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience!😋
2 teaspoons of salt for 4 chicken breast halves? That is 10000 milligrams, 2500 milligrams per one breast (serving), the amount we shouldn't exceed in a whole day.
Does it really need that much? And lets not forget the salt in the broth and pancetta
I make chicken marsala all the time. I would never put gelatin in it, but I do make sort of a “glace de poulet” by reducing chicken stock way down and saving it in cubes to drop into sauces. I use this (or glace de viande) in my marsala sauce, which does add gelatin. And I like the sweetness, would never use dry marsala. I only use shitake mushrooms in mine, just a personal preference. I might try pre-reducing the marsala, but I am not sure why that’s better than reducing it later
wow 16 years ago!!
As of 2021, the citrus juicer at amazon is only $12.88 each…such a bargin!
You two ladies are dirty.
I prefer a sweet Marsala. And I also prefer it with a little cream. I guess the cream is a French touch. If I'm at a restaurant and I get a non-sweet version of Marsala I add a packet of sugar to it. To me its not Marsala if it doesn't have a little sweetness.
Is there an easier, more visionfriendly way for me to create chicken cutlets as opposed to how Bridget Lancaster shows the viewers? I ask because I have a hard time doing it myself because of my sight impairment.
You two ladies are my friend!
Hello.
Julia and Bridget, my fav two ATK people!!!

What happened to Chris?
This is one of the best dishes I have ever made or had! The only thing I did differently was that I used dried shiitake mushrooms instead of porcinis, I cleaned and trimmed them well, and I actually chopped and used them in the sauce after simmering them in the marsala in the first step. They were soft and rich and added a wonderful depth of flavor and texture.
Hmmm, shallots 🤔 In Oz, they don’t look like that. And we pronounce the “o” (a short “o”). Here, shallots look like long skinny things that are green on top and white at the bottom.
I love when Julia says "Hell-llooo." I always feel like internally she's saying "Hell yes!" Makes me identify with her. 🧡💙
CHris is missed. But Julia and Bridget are terrific.
I love you two!!! I could watch all day… but … i do have to work! Thank you for the fun and the giant tips!
I dislike the taste of Marsala, can anyone recommend a substitute?
2 and 1/2 years later and I'm still in love with these ladies ❤️
How about a copycat Rao's red sauce recipe so we don't have to spend $8 a jar—for something that could be made at home for half the cost.
