  5. transfer to a plate and set aside.
  6. add the remaining butter to the pan and add the mushrooms.
  7. cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are golden brown around the edges and have given off their liquid.
  8. add the marsala wine and bring to a boil, scraping to remove any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  9. when the wine has reduced by half, add the chicken stock and cook for 3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  10. lower the heat to low and return the chicken breasts to the pan and continue to cook until they are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 6 minutes.
  11. plate chicken and pour over sauce and add chopped parsley to serve.
