    The whole musical chairs with the pancetta on top of the chicken and then flipping over didn't seem to do anything in regard to flavor and the pancetta seemed a bit undercooked. Next time I might fry the pancetta by itself a little more before placing on the chicken. I also think the kalamata olives would have released more flavor if they were pitted. For an all-in-one pan recipe this is okay but it seemed lacking for a full meal. I might need to serve over angel hair pasta next time.

    This recipe seemed like it was going to be complicated, but it truly was not! It was delicious and my husband has asked that I make it again, soon!
    I did exclude the olives because neither my husband or I like green olives. The asparagus I used was very slender because my husband doesn't care for the medium or thick stalks. Also I used Cherry tomatoes because that is all my supermarket had in stock.
    Next time I will use a thinner chicken breast. The thick ones I used took a long time and I was worried they wouldn't be cooked all the way through. Also I would leave the pancetta on longer to crisp up a bit more.
    All in all a wonderful and extremely easy recipe! I highly recommend it!

    Great flavors! I use grape tomatoes because they're the only kind that I can stand to eat whole.

    How easy was this? I am new to cooking and wanted to impress (and surprise some friends. They loved it! The problem is that they now expect me to cook more often... I'll be returning to this site to get more inspiration.

    I have made this dish twice - - the first time exactly as stated here and a second time with a couple modifications. The original recipe is excellent - - very easy and very tasty. The second time I substituted bacon for the pancetta and capers for the olives - - that's what I had in the fridge. Same great results. Thanks for a great recipe, Jamie!

    This recipe was absolutely fabulous! This dinner reminded me why it is often better to eat at home, rather than out in a restaurant.

    I LOVE Jamie Oliver, BUT I felt going into this that the heat was too high for chicken breast. I tried it against my gut, and found, as I thought, the chicken tough. I love these flavors, but will FOLLOW THE RECIPE NEXT TIME. The chicken was way too tough. I will know next time that I need to re-read..
    By the way, you people reviewing on this sight are WAY too forgiving, and I do not trust reviews here! Put these recipes on the Epicurious site, and see the difference.
