This is one of my families favorite go to quick meal. It takes me about 20 minutes to cook, depending on how many kids I have under toe.
It's such a tasty recipe, the sauce is AMAZING, and if you don't have crusty bread to mop up the left over sauce, you'll look crazy licking your plate!
Also I always feel that I need to mention when my kids really like what I made. And they did...really really like it. So much so that next time I'll have to make extras.
2-3 chicken breasts halved
Salt and pepper
2 tabl butter
1 lb asparagus trimmed of ends (2") and cut into 2" pieces
1 1/2 c heavy cream
2-3 tabl store bought basil pesto (my fav is the Classico brand-yum!)
Melt butter in a large skillet over med heat. Cook both sides of your chicken, (seasoning with salt and pepper) 4-5 min until done, remove to a cutting board and slice into 1" cubes.
Place the asparagus in the pan, and sautée 4-5 min. Pour heavy cream over the top, and stir in the pesto. Allow to summer 3-5 min until it's thickened slightly, place chicken back in the pan and stir around to coat the chicken. And your done! I usually serve mine with Texas toast, great for moping up the extra sauce!
