  1. For the stuffed chicken: Arrange the chicken breasts skin side down on a cutting board, makig sure the skin is proportionately stretched over the breasts; halve them. Remove the fillet strip from each breast, throw away the white tendon, and in a food processor grind the fillets. Add in the ice, blend the mix till the ice is absorbed, and with the motor running add in the cream. Add in the spinach, the salt, fennel seeds, the rind, the nutmeg and the pepper. Blend the filling well, scraping down the sides. Turn the breasts skin side up and beginning at the pointed end pull the skin back carefully leaving the thin transparent membranes attached along a long side and leaving the skin attached at the opposite end. Spread 3 Tbsp. of the spinach filling proportionately over each breast, smoothing it, and stretch the skin over the filling to cover it.Refrigeratethe chicken, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, for 1 hour. May be prepared to this point 24 hrs in advance and kept covered and chilled. In a large ovenproof skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat unti it is warm but not smoking, add in the chicken, skin side down and season it with salt and pepper.

Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let it stand, covered loosely with foil for 5 min. For sauce: Pour off the fat from the skillet, add in the Madeira, and boil it, scraping up the brown bits, till it is reduced to about 2 Tbsp..
