Carrabba's Chicken Marsala

Recipe Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
 
Menu Description: "Fire-roasted chicken breast topped with mushrooms, prosciutto and our Florio Marsala wine sauce." 

To reverse-engineer this big-time favorite entree, I ordered the dish to go, with the sauce on the side, so that I could separately analyze each component. After some trial and error in the underground lab, I found that recreating the secret sauce from scratch is easy enough with a couple small cans of sliced mushrooms, a bit of prosciutto, some Marsala wine, shallots, garlic and a few other good things. Cooking the chicken requires a very hot grill. The restaurant chain grills chicken breasts over a blazing real wood fire, so crank your grill up high enough to get the flames nipping at your cluckers (no, that's not an euphemism). If your grill has a lid, keep it open so you can watch for nasty flare-ups.

This recipe is 100% spot on. I made this dish tonight after buying the recipe earlier in the day and I am blown away at how great it was. Accurate and very simple. I am thrilled.

This recipe is just awesome! I cook the marinaided breasts over high heat with charcoal and apple wood coals to get the full flavor.

This is my all-time favorite recipe! I love to cook it for friends to make them think I am a great cook, when really it is just an amazing recipe. Not too hard, and better than the restaurant's version!

this was absolutely delicious... we've made it twice, and if you notice the sauce comes out a little thicker than carrabbas in this recipe. so we used 1/3 the amout of corn starch and it hit the nail on the head. you can serve 8 people for the price of 1 plate at carrabbas!! and any ol' hot ham will due for prosciutto.

This recipe is a great clone of the original and it's my favorite dish at Carrabba's! I've used both fresh and canned mushrooms, great either way.

This was delicious. I didn't use the prosciutto and used fresh white mushrooms instead of canned. Everyone loved it even the kids who aren't great herb lovers.
