Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F.
• Bring broth to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan over high heat, then boil, uncovered, until reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 20 minutes.
• Cook shallot in 3 tablespoons butter in an 8- to 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until shallot begins to turn golden, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms, 1 teaspoon sage, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid mushrooms give off is evaporated and mushrooms begin to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Put flour in a wide shallow bowl. Gently pound chicken to 1/4 inch thick between 2 sheets of plastic wrap using the flat side of a meat pounder or a rolling pin.
• Pat chicken dry and season with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, 1 piece at a time, shaking off excess. Transfer to sheets of wax paper, arranging chicken in 1 layer.
• Heat 1 tablespoon each of oil and butter in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté half of chicken, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, about 4 minutes total. Transfer cooked chicken to a large heatproof platter, arranging in 1 layer, then put platter in oven to keep warm. Wipe out skillet with paper towels and cook remaining chicken in same manner, then transfer to oven, arranging in 1 layer.
• Add 1/2 cup wine to skillet and boil over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, about 30 seconds. Add reduced broth, cream, and mushrooms, then simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly thickened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons wine and 1/2 teaspoon sage.
• Serve chicken with sauce.

Steps:

• Season the chicken with the salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread the flour on a plate. Coat the chicken in the flour and set on another plate. Reserve the flour. 
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons each butter and olive oil; let melt. Working in batches, cook the chicken until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove to a clean plate. 
• Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel and return to medium-high heat. Add another tablespoon each of butter and olive oil. When the butter melts, add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes. 
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add 1 more tablespoon olive oil, the shallots and sage and cook, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the reserved flour and toss to coat. Add the Marsala, bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth; return to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. 
• Add the chicken and half of the parsley to the skillet. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. 
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook as the label directs for al dente. Reserve ½ cup cooking water, then drain the spaghetti and transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil and the remaining parsley; season with salt and pepper. Add ¼ cup of the reserved cooking water and toss, adding more cooking water if needed. Serve with the chicken and sauce.
