Preparation

Step 1

Combine parsley and zest; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Melt butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add shallots and saute until softened, 3-5 minutes.

Stir in Marsala and cook until nearly evaporated.

Add broth and bring to a boil. Add tortellini; cover and cook until al dente, about 7 minutes. Stir in cream, bring to a simmer, and season with salt and pepper.

Off heat, stir in chicken and Parmesan. Garnish each serving with parsley mixture.
