Cultural Context

Chicken Madeira is a classic American dish that showcases the influence of Portuguese cuisine, particularly through the use of Madeira wine.

30 min
medium
4 servings
Servings4
1 pound chicken breasts, halved and pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 tablespoons butter
8 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
2 cups Madeira wine
1 1/2 cups beef stock
8 ounces Mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
1 pound asparagus, trimmed
1

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 3 tablespoons of butter.

2

Salt and pepper the chicken breasts and place them in the hot pan. Don’t overcrowd the pan, you may need to cook in batches.

3

Cook chicken for about 4 minutes on each side, or until chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Set aside.

4

Add the remaining butter to the pan along with the sliced mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until mushrooms are tender and cooked through, approximately 15 minutes. Set aside with chicken.

5

Add the Madeira wine and beef broth to the same pan, turning up the heat and bringing the mixture to a boil.

6

Boil for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, and then reduce to a simmer. Keep cooking until the mixture is reduced by half and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, approximately 10 minutes.

7

While the sauce cooks, steam your asparagus until it is crisp-tender.

8

Add the chicken and mushrooms back to the sauce. Top with the steamed asparagus and sliced mozzarella cheese.

9

Place a lid on the pan and continue to cook for 3-5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
