- 4 boneless chicken breasts or thighs

- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
- Dredge chicken pieces in flour, ensuring each piece is coated well. Shake off any excess flour.

- Once done, season with salt and pepper, adjusting according to preference.
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving, adding a vibrant touch of green.
Notes
- If you fancy a creamy texture, introduce 1/2 cup of heavy cream in the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Always opt for a good quality Marsala wine; it’s the heart and soul of this dish.
