Pork Marsala with Mushrooms and Shallots- a crazy simple yet scrumptiously great dinner, served in 30 minutes or less!
I never intended to start sharing my dinner recipes as regularly as I have been, but you guys are the best, and you’re constantly asking for more! You’ve also been asking for ‘prep pics’ – meaning where I’m taking shots while cooking, and while I’m not going to promise every recipe will have that, I will make an effort to try and take pictures while preparing some things (spoiler alert: prep pics below!) 😉
I love that blogging gives me the ability to share my favorite recipes with you, especially ones that are family favorites and easy to make. This pork marsala dish is a perfect example! It’s super flavorful, a one pan dish, and my family LOVES it, so I’m pretty sure yours will too!
Did I mention it’s done in about 30 minutes? Uhhh hello busy weeknight amazing meal! Here I’m serving it up with roasted potatoes and broccoli, but I’ve served it with egg noodles and green beans before and it’s just as good! I love that its super versatile in that way, because its fun to switch up the routine dinners to keep you from getting bored, ya know? 🙂
Here’s what you’ll need…(serves 4)
- 1 lb boneless center cut pork chops (on the thin side)
- 2 thinly sliced shallots
- 2 chopped garlic cloves
- 1 box pre sliced baby bella mushrooms
- 1/2 cup Marsala wine
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- about 2 tablespoons olive oil
- about 2 tablespoons butter
- about 1/3 cup all purpose flour
- about 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- about 1/2 teaspoon of Kosher salt and ground pepper
- fresh thyme
- **optional about a teaspoon Dijon Mustard
- On a plate or shallow bowl add flour, garlic powder and salt and pepper-mix. Toss your pork in the mixture to coat all sides and tap off the excess.
- In a saute pan or similar add butter and oil to a medium high heat, when butter is melted, add pork.
- Add pork to pan and cook, flipping over one time when sides get golden brown.
- Lower the heat to medium-lowish and add your mushrooms, shallots, and garlic to the pan. Use tongs to toss them around so they are touching the pan.
- Add in your Marsala wine and chicken broth, and use a wooden spoon to scrape up the bits at the bottom of the pan.
- Add in fresh thyme (about a teaspoon-tablespoon)
- Cover the pan and let cook for about 7-8 minutes
- Optional- add in about a teaspoon of Dijon Mustard (pork and mustard are a match made in heaven) and let cook for another 3-4 minutes uncovered
- It will be ready when the sauce has thickened into a gravy.
Could it be any simpler? You know…We’re coming up on entertaining season, and this could easily be served to a crowd. Your friends and family will think you’re amazing – I won’t tell them how easy it was to make, promise! 😉
SO EASY, SO DELICIOUS!
I hope you love this recipe as much as we do!
Talk to you soon friends, take care!

This is going on my to do list as soon as we get back from vacation! Looks so delicious with the potatoes, but I really would like to try it with some noodles first…yum. Thanks for sharing.

Yes! It’s REALLY good with egg noodles 🙂 That’s our favorite way to eat it. Enjoy the rest of your vacay <3
I made this for my husband last night and he LOVED it. The marsala is a perfect with the dijon mustard, and the pork was excellent with some parmesan and garlic roasted potatoes as well as lemon sautéed asparagus on the side. Thank you for recipe, I will be making this again soon!
So happy you all enjoyed it Rebecca! Thanks so much for taking the time to write your review. XO
This Was Awsome. ..!
Hello!
Is there a way you would recommended making these in the oven? My husband accidentally got thicker bone isn pork chops and I’m not sure how well they will cook in a skillet. I’m wondering if I could search the chops, bake them, and make the sauce in the skillet while they are baking?
Absolutely. I’m sure it would turn out great that way too!
This sounds wonderful! I can’t wait to give it a try!

Excellent recipe when craving a Marsalis dish. I’m on a budget and pork is so much cheaper then chicken breasts or veal traditionally used when making this dish. I usually pound the meat thin which helps tenderizer the lean and often dry center cut boneless pork chops. Hope this tip helps 🙂
I have made this dish many times, and now it is one of our favorites! I love making mashed potatoes and green beans as sides. Thank you. I can’t make gravy, (I’m from the south) but I can make marsala. So, I guess I will be okay!
