Cooking Steps
-
Wash and dry produce.
-
Using a zester or the smallest holes of a box grater, grate Parmesan. Quarter lemon.
-
Break chicken strips apart by massaging chicken pouch before opening. Cut open pouch; thoroughly drain and discard liquid (the liquid is a result of the sous-vide cooking technique).
-
Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken to hot pan. Separate chicken strips; heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 2-4 minutes.
-
Reduce heat to low. Add marsala sauce and simmer, stirring, until chicken is coated and sauce is heated through, 30-60 seconds.
-
Meanwhile, massage grain blend in package to break up grains; partially open package. Microwave until warmed through, 1½-2 minutes.
-
Place spinach in a large bowl. Once grains are warmed through, add to bowl with spinach along with garlic herb butter and Parmesan; stir until thoroughly combined and spinach has wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
-
Divide grain mixture between shallow bowls. Top with chicken Marsala and almonds. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The Kevin's marsala sauce divided reviewers — some loved the convenience and taste, while others found it too sweet, too salty, or not reminiscent of classic chicken marsala.
- Ease of prep: The low-lift format made this genuinely fast to prepare, with most meals on the table in under 20 minutes.
- Suggestions: Add balsamic vinegar to the sauce for extra depth, or toss in fresh mushrooms to boost the marsala flavor; serve over pasta instead of grains if you prefer a more traditional pairing.
- Leftovers: One reviewer noted the dish reheated well and made great leftovers, while another found the spinach made it slimy when reheated.
- Portions: A few felt the protein portion was small, especially for four servings, and suggested adding an extra grain serving to make it more filling.
