Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the flour. Whisk to create a roux, cooking for about 1-2 minutes on low heat.
Gradually pour in the Madeira wine and chicken stock, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Increase heat to medium and simmer until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the heavy cream and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Lower the heat and keep the sauce warm.
Lightly toast the bread slices in a separate pan or in a toaster. Trim them into neat circles or squares, if desired, to match the size of the chicken breasts.
In another skillet, sear the foie gras slices on medium-high heat for 30 seconds on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
To assemble, place a toasted bread slice on each serving plate. Top with a chicken breast, followed by a slice of foie gras. Spoon the warm Madeira sauce generously over the top.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately for a luxurious and flavorful meal.
