Ingredients
 

  • 4 tablespoon butter divided
  • 2-2 ½ lb boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2-3 teaspoon seasoning salt blend or salt and pepper divided (see note)
  • 8 oz sliced mushrooms
  • 1 cup chicken broth regular or low-sodium
  • 3 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 lb asparagus
  • Garnish: shaved parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Season chicken on both sides with seasoning salt blend or salt and pepper.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of the butter to a large skillet on medium-high heat. Once hot, sear chicken 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer the browned and par-cooked chicken to a plate. Set aside.
  • To the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Once melted, add mushrooms and sauté 4 minutes.
  • Lower the heat to medium. Pour in chicken broth, stir, and scrape up any solid bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and milk. Whisk the milk mixture into the skillet. Once combined, taste and adjust for balance of flavors. Once combined, add the reserved chicken to the skillet. Cover and cook 10 minutes.
  • Uncover the skillet, and add the asparagus to the top of the chicken. Season with additional seasoning salt blend or salt and pepper. Cover and cook an additional 5 minutes.
  • Plate over pasta, rice, potatoes or a grain blend. Garnish with parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • This recipe is delicious served over many different side dishes. Some of our favorites include:
  • The seasoning salt blend I use is Kinder's The Blend, but there are lots of varieties that will work great!
  • Half & Half or heavy cream can be used in place of milk if desired.
