Chicken, Peppers, Onions, and Mushrooms with Marsala Wine

This wants to be good. It really does. The onions, peppers and mushrooms were really flavorful, but the chicken was bland. It seems D's and my palates are off whenever we have something sauteed in wine. D uses wine to give depth to whatever sauce, so when the wine is the sauce, we feel the meat is on the flavorless side. However, I ate the peppers, onions and mushrooms with zest.

We had with rice. Not sure about having again. It also needed more salt.
