Day 6

Chicken Marsala for Sunday Dinner!!
This is good whether you're on the diet or not :)

What you need:
2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts pounded thin and cut in half

Pinch of sea salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

3/4 cup flour

1/2 teaspoon dried leaf basil

1 tablespoon olive oil
1-2 tablespoons unsalted margarine (optional).  When you're off the diet, bump this for butter.
8 oz sliced mushrooms
3/4 cup Marsala wine

What to do:
Pound the chicken with all your pent-up low iodine diet frustration.
Combine flour with sea salt, pepper and basil.  Mix it up,
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Lightly coat chicken pieces in flour mixture.  Place in skillet.
Cook chicken 3 minutes until lightly brown on first side.
Flip chicken.
Add mushrooms to the skillet.
Cook for 2 minutes until the second side is lightly browned.  Lightly stir.
Add marsala wine to chicken/ mushrooms.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 10 minutes, turning once.

Can serve over whole wheat pasta with a side of broccoli or asparagus and a glass of chardonnay :)
