Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 chicken breast
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
  • 1 tsp dried thyme or parsley
  • 68 asparagus spears, trimmed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until crispy.
  2. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from heat.
  3. In the same skillet, add chicken broth, Dijon mustard, heavy cream, lemon juice (if using), and herbs. Stir and let simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened. Return the chicken to coat it in the sauce.
  4. Sauté asparagus in olive oil with a pinch of salt for about 4-5 minutes until tender but bright green.
  5. To serve, arrange sautéed asparagus on a plate, top with coated chicken breast and sauce, alongside roasted baby potatoes.
