Easy Chicken Recipe – Baked Chicken Breast on a Bed of Asparagus, Peppers and Onions
This tasty and healthy chicken and veggie recipe could be made with all olive oil in place of the butter when cooking the chicken tenders. In doing so you would sacrifice some of the flavor added by the butter, but if you’re worried about the fat & cholesterol, then by all means do so.
You get a great variety of flavors with the asparagus, green pepper and the cheese. To vary it even further and make a recipe of your own you could substitute other vegetables. Some you might think of are: broccoli or Brussels sprouts. They would add a different flavor mix if substituted for the asparagus..
For the green pepper you might substitute another variety of pepper. Jalapeno comes to mind, but I would use a much smaller quantity. .
You could change this recipe to an Alfredo sauce dish by adding the Parmesan cheeses, some cream or milk with stirring and heat after step 7. Then add the veggies and chicken, omit the breadcrumbs, and finish the dish on the stovetop.
Ingredients.
6 large asparagus spears
2 chicken breast tenders, seasoned with salt and pepper (about 3 oz)
1/2 green pepper cut in thin strips
1/2 onion slice thin
2 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon butter.
Instructions.
1 – Snap bottom fibrous sections of asparagus spears.
2 – Cover with salted water and cook until crispy tender (about 5 minutes).
3 – Remove, drain, and set aside.
4 – Heat oven proof skillet and add olive oil
5 – Saute’ pepper strips and onion slices until onions are translucent.
6 – Remove and set aside then in the same skillet add the butter and saute’ the seasoned
chicken tenders for 1 – 1 1/2 minutes per side.
7 – Remove the chicken pieces and set aside.
8 – Layer the asparagus spears on the skillet bottom, then add onions and peppers and
chicken tenders, and top with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
