I want a good substitute for mushrooms in a chicken marsala recipe. I can't eat mushrooms but I love marsala.

Question

I just want some other vegetable or side to put in place of the mushrooms for the recipe.

Answer 1

Much as I hate to say it, this is one of those (in my mind, very few) places where tofu would be a good bet. The texture is similar to that of mushrooms, and, like mushrooms, it largely takes on the flavor of whatever it's cooked with.

Answer 2

Marsala Substitute

Answer 3

I've never seen a hard chicken marsala recipe. Brown off chicken breasts in a large sauté pan. When the chicken is halfway done add sliced onions and mushrooms. When the chicken is done and the onions and mushrooms are cooked deglaze with Marsala wine. Add a small amount of tomato sauce and tomato paste to thicken. When thickened, turn off the heat and mix a small amount of butter into the sauce. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

Answer 4

Why can't you make it without the mushrooms and just serve it with rice and a green vegetable. Chicken Marabella is good, look up the recipe on line. No mushrroms.

Answer 5

Traditionally, Chicken Marsala does not have mushrooms in it.
Sauteed potatoes, or Dauphinoises, would go well. And any vegetable your choice.

Answer 6

leave them out all together. i would probably pick one or more of the following:
1. steamed asparagus with hollandaise sauce
2. garlic mashed potatos
3. fried cream corn
4. broccoli with cheese sauce
5. chicken marsala over a bed of rice and french style green beans on the side!
