Suggest a better descriptionLay half a chicken breast on a cutting board. Holding a knife parallel to the board, slice the breast in half, but don't cut all the way through; the two pieces should remain connected so they can be opened like a book.
In a large heavy-based skillet, cook the pancetta or bacon over medium-high heat, stirring often, for 4 minutes or until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels. Do not wipe out the pan.
In a large shallow bowl, stir together the flour, salt and pepper. Dip the breasts into the flour to cover them all over. Pat off excess flour.
Reheat the skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp of butter. When the butter is foaming, add two chicken breasts and saute, turning often, for 5 to 6 minutes or until they are browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Add 2 tbsp of butter to the pan and brown the remaining breasts in the same way.
Melt the remaining 2 tbsp of butter in the skillet. Add the mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 10 minutes or until the mushrooms release their liquid. Turn up the heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid almost evaporates.
Add the garlic and pancetta or bacon to the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 min. Add the Marsala wine and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the liquid to 1/4 cup. Add the chicken broth and return to a boil. Let the mixture bubble steadily for 2 min. Stir in the cream and cook, shaking the pan, until the mixture returns to a boil. Taste the seasoning and add more salt and pepper if you like. Use flour or corn starch to thicken if so desired.
Return the chicken to the pan. Reheat it in the simmering sauce, turning several times, for 3 minutes or until the chicken is hot again.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve at once.
