We live near the Faribault, Minn., caves that are used to age the lovely Amableu Gorgonzola cheese. Chicken topped with melting Gorgonzola is quick enough for weeknight cooking but also elegant enough for a dinner party.

Tip

Gorgonzola

An Italian cheese from the blue cheese family that is cream-yellow in color with characteristic blue veins. Like blue cheese, it has a bold flavor and crumbles easily, making it a good addition to salads and sauces.

Full-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a full-bodied white wine such as Chardonnay or Viognier.

this is really easy and fast. I made it with dry vermouth instead of the marsala and just regular button mushrooms. A standby recipe in out family now.

It's hard to give this an accurate rating because in my case, it was extremely salty. I realize that might be my fault, as I salted the mushrooms slightly as I cooked them, not realizing the "cooking wine" I got from the store also had a lot of salt in it. If using that type of wine, omit all other salt. I think it would have been excellent if not for that.

I'm wondering what I did wrong because I wasn't impressed.

This dish was superb! My entire family devoured it. I served it over rice and had biscuits on the side with a salad. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
