Chicken and Asparagus in White Wine Sauce
Becky Luigart-Stayner; Melanie J. Clarke
This tasty chicken and asparagus with white wine sauce is easy enough for a weeknight dinner but impressive enough for company.
This recipe works equally well with green beans or haricots verts in place of asparagus.
How to Make It
Step 1
Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Sprinkle chicken breasts evenly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 2
Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place flour in a shallow dish. Dredge chicken in flour. Add chicken to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm. Add wine, broth, and garlic to pan, scraping pan to loosen browned bits; cook 2 minutes. Add asparagus; cover and cook 3 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Remove from heat; stir in parsley and juice. Serve asparagus and sauce with chicken.

Delightful! Even with frozen ingredients, this turned out great!

This was a quick and simple recipe. The only differences I made were: wheat flour instead of regular and sea salt in stead of regular. It turned out great and was full of flavor!

It turned out great! I didn't mince the garlic but chopped it. Delicious sauce!
Dougboy's Review
This dish was very tasty, but I ended up with practically no sauce! Next time I think I'll use more wine/broth to get more.
DianeLM's Review
I liked that the ingredients called for in this recipe are basic, have on hand ingredients, it was quick and easy to prepare, and tasty as well - I used a Riesling, as that was what I was drinking, and added thick sliced zucchini with the asparagus, which I cut the stalks into thirds. Served with roasted potatoes and the rest of the wine, it was excellent!

I love this dish! I have made it several times and my family always enjoys it. I have used green beans when I did not have asparagus and it also works well!

Recipe was tasty, but my asparagus was a little bitter cooked in this method. Also I had very little sauce - it cooked down. I think it would be good with broccoli.
