The most sought-after restaurant recipes tend to also be the most popular dishes at a restaurant and that definitely holds true for The Cheesecake Factory™ Chicken Madeira. Many people will confuse this with their Chicken and Mushrooms in Marsala sauce. There are several differences, but it really comes down to using Madeira rather than Marsala wine.
This is an amazing blend of sauteed chicken topped with asparagus and melted cheese. This is all topped with mushrooms in a Madeira wine sauce. The Cheesecake Factory™ serves this with a generous portion of mashed potatoes.
Recipe
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 boneless chicken breast
8 asparagus spears
4 slices mozzarella cheese
Sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
3 cups Madeira wine
2 cups beef stock
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
- Cover chicken breast with plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thick.
- Sprinkle each filet with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Saute fillets 4-6 minutes per side until done and browned just a bit.
- Remove from pan and wrap in foil to keep warm while you make the sauce.
- In chicken pan add olive oil and sliced mushrooms; saute for about 2 minutes.
- Add Madeira wine, beef stock, butter, and pepper.
- Bring to boil then reduce heat; simmer 20 minutes until reduced to about 1/2 original volume. When sauce is done it will be thick, and brown.
- While sauce is reducing, bring a pan of water to boil.
- Add salt to water at boil; blanch asparagus (3-5 minutes). Drop asparagus in ice water to halt cooking.
- Set oven to broil.
- In baking dish arrange chicken, cross 2 asparagus stems over each piece of chicken and top with a slice of cheese.
- Broil until cheese melts.
- Put chicken on plate.
- To serve, top with 3-4 tablespoons sauce on each piece.

This chicken Madeira dish was my absolute fav. I am a Chix Marsala Freak!! BUT THIS IS AMAZING!!! I have never looked up a recipe until now, My wonderful Fiance is gonna make it for me cause I liked it soooo much.. Mmmmm.
Oh, you’re not kidding. I absolutely LOVE this recipe and it’s really not that tough to make. If you have a date coming up and you have to cook dinner, this is almost foolproof. You’ll gain a lot of points making this chicken. Enjoy!
i love this dish! the secret is to cut chicken breast in two make it super thin~
If I’m not mistaken the Cheesecake Factory just added a new appetizer to their menu, made of just the sauce of that dish topped on a piece of break. I wonder what they do different as the sauce does take more condense. I bet it’s heavy cream. Any suggestions?

Excellent recipe, but has anyone else had trouble with the sauce? I followed the recipe to the letter, and the sauce never seemed to thicken. Twenty minutes, then 30, 35, and 40 minutes later, my mushrooms were still swimming in a very shallow pool of very thin sauce! Another few minutes and they would have been sizzing at the bottom of a dry pan like fish in a suddenly dry lakebed! Finally added some cornstarch, which saved the day. Any other ideas?
Do you know if you can make the sauce the day before and then heat it up and cook it over the chicken the next day?
Add brown sugar, Balsamic vinegar and then thicken with a little flour slurry. There you go.
Hello Restaurantrecipesbook,
Maybe a little off topic, however A lot of people enjoy a night out at a restaurant with friends to enjoy sushi, conversation, and fond memories. But crowded restaurants can make the experience more of a chore than a relaxing night out. Now imagine having the same experience at home for half of the cost, with less noise, and plenty of room. Invite your family and close friends over for a “night out” complete with restaurant quality sushi as your main course. One of the secrets to making good looking and good tasting sushi is having the proper knife. With the proper traditional Japanese chef knives, and professional grade sushi knives you can make the same meal in your own kitchen.
Thanks
This plate is my favorite, my husband took me there to celebrate my birthday the witress recomend me this plate when he describe the taste I found right away that is going to taste as a real portuguese plate, once I start eating I make sure to let my husband know how delicious is this plate.
Hey PCurran add 1 teaspoon cornstarch and 2 teaspoons sugar.
