Ingredients: - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts - Salt and pepper, to taste - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter - 2 tablespoons olive oil - 1 cup sliced mushrooms - 1/2 cup dry Marsala wine - 1/2 cup chicken broth - 1/4 cup heavy cream - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions:
