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 tsp 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 the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden.
  2. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through. Remove from heat.
  3. In the same skillet, combine chicken broth, Dijon mustard, heavy cream, lemon juice (if desired), and herbs. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened. Return chicken to coat in sauce.
  4. In another pan, sauté trimmed asparagus with olive oil over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until tender but vibrant green.
  5. Serve by plating sautéed asparagus topped with creamy Dijon chicken alongside crispy roasted potatoes.
