Dishing on Dinner: Chicken Marsala

Tonight's dinner consisted of a new recipe via Pinterest and courtesy of Savory Sweet Life. When I came across this pin (see below) I KNEW I had to try it. And, I'm so glad that I did! We're big fans of Chicken Marsala, and seriously, what's not to love? I've never tried to replicate it at home but this recipe is super easy, fast, and tasted pretty darn delicious.

I reduced the sauce as the recipe suggested but next time, and there WILL be a next time, I'll probably reduce it longer and even let it 'rest' a bit to thicken up a little more. We paired it with some yummy mashed potatoes, green beans, and a soft dinner roll. 

Review: It was so, so, so good. The family loved it and I was able to have a delicious dinner on the table in 30 minutes from start to finish. I'll definitely be adding this one into our rotation. If you try it I'd love to hear what you think of it!

Tonight's dinner was another Pinterest find. I double-heart-love-it when I find a recipe that's easy, inexpensive, and it gets good reviews from the family. We had a busy day planned so we needed a simple dinner that could be on the table in minutes after we returned home (totally relatable, right?).

This recipe came from Margie Hawks, and was posted on Dahl's website. I'm not familiar with Dahl's but because of the magic of Pinterest I was led to the recipe. Thank you, Pinterest. You can find the original recipe HERE. We paired it with a yummy side salad with some of our leftover homemade dressing.

I followed the lasagna recipe exactly, except for two very minor changes. I added a can of sliced mushrooms and I had a bag of Kraft Italian 5-Cheese mix that I subbed for the parmesan since I had it on hand. I strongly believe that this recipe is very forgiving. So, if you have a favorite sauce you'd like to sub, I'm sure that would be fine. I will say that the timing and 'cooking instructions' were spot on as it made delicious and tender pasta. Also, adding the top layer of cheese at the very end and turning off the cooker made the steam melt the cheese perfectly. What a great idea!

Our Review:

Quick to assemble, easy to make, and delicious. We'll definitely be adding this to our rotation. Dinner success! Click on the picture to pin it!
