Ingredients:

Serving

1 chicken breast supreme, skin removed
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
olive oil
3 slices smoked pancetta
8 medium- sized spears asparagus , woody ends trimmed off
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
5 kalamata olives , stones left in
handful basil leaves
small knob unsalted butter
splash white wine

Directions:

In Italy they use olives instead of salt, as they give a gentle seasoning, perfume and meatiness to dishes.
Slice the chicken into 3 finger size pieces, but ensure that you keep it as 1 piece (fan it out). This will help to cook the chicken much faster. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a medium-sized frying pan, add some oil, and brown the chicken on all sides. Place the pancetta on top of the chicken and the asparagus around it, let it char a little, then put the pancetta on the bottom of the pan to crisp up and turn the chicken over. Turn up the heat, throw in the tomatoes, olives, basil, and a good knob of butter. Take off the heat once the butter has melted and add a splash of wine to make a sauce, squishing in a few of the tomatoes to finish it off.
