Steps:
- Put morels in mixing bowl and add warm water to cover. Let stand 30 minutes or longer. Drain.
- Put each chicken breast half on flat surface, trim off all remnants of fat and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in small heavy skillet and add 1 tablespoon of shallots. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add drained morels, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, about 1 minute and add 1/2 of wine. Cook until liquid is reduced by half. Add cream and cook 2 minutes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in skillet large enough to hold chicken in one layer. Add chicken pieces and cook over moderately high heat. As chicken pieces cook, stir gently without turning about 3 minutes or until nicely browned. Turn and continue cooking about 5 minutes.
- Transfer chicken to warm serving dish, arranging neatly. Add remaining shallots to skillet and stir briefly. Add remaining wine and stir to dissolve brown particles that cling to bottom of pan. Cook down until not quite evaporated. Add chicken broth and cook 1 minute.
- Heat morels in cream and spoon around chicken.
- Swirl remaining tablespoon of butter into sauce with chicken broth and spoon over chicken pieces.
