Amanda's Analysis:
I loved this recipe! It was quick and easy to make and didn't require half an hour of chopping before starting to cook (I hate that). I thought it was flavorful and the chicken stayed moist, and best of all it had mushrooms! The only thing I might try differently next time is using more wine to create more sauce. I give it 7 spoons!

John's Jibba-Jabba:
Yes it was tasty. Yes it was easy. The only thing I did not like about it was the mushrooms. They were everywhere! You could not take a bite without chomping down on one. Although I will say that their taste was not overpowering and their texture was above average. I will give this Marsala 6 mushroom filled spoons.
