    03 Method
    • Step 1
      Cook the pancetta: Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the diced pancetta and cook until lightly browned and crisp. Use a slotted spoon to remove the pancetta, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
    • Step 2
      Cook the onions or shallots: Add the onions or shallots and cook until translucent and lightly browned (5 to 10 minutes for onions, if using shallots lower the heat to medium and cook a minute or two).
    • Step 3
      Remove the onions from the pan, leaving any remaining fat in the pan. Add the onions to the cooked pancetta and set aside.
    • Step 4
      Prepare chicken for dredging: Put flour in a shallow plate for dredging. Pat the chicken cutlets dry and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
    • Step 5
      Heat the skillet on medium-high heat. You should have about 2 tablespoons of fat in the pan from the pancetta, if not add more olive oil to the pan.
    • Step 6
      Dredge and cook the chicken: When the fat in the pan is hot (test it to make sure by sprinkling a tiny bit of flour in the pan, it should sizzle), dredge a chicken cutlet in the flour on both sides, shake off the excess and place in the hot pan.
    • Step 7
      Continue with as many cutlets as can fit in the pan without crowding. Saute until just browned, on both sides. It should only take a minute or two. Cook all of the cutlets in the same way, adding more olive oil to the pan if necessary. Remove the cooked cutlets to a plate.
    • Step 8
      Make the sauce: Pour off any excess fat. Add the marsala to the hot pan to deglaze it, scraping up any browned bits. Let the marsala boil away until it reduces by a quarter or a half and stirs in the cream. Let boil until the sauce thickens.
    • Step 9
      Coat chicken cutlets in the sauce: Return the chicken cutlets, the pancetta, and onions to the pan and turn to coat with the creamy Marsala sauce. Reheat for 1/2 a minute.
    • Step 10
      Serve the cutlets with the sauce and a little freshly chopped parsley.
