Best Lemon Asparagus Chicken
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (can do 5 which is what is required for our family)
- 13 cup flour, seasoned with
- salt and pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons margarine, divided
- 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 14 cup milk
- 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of asparagus soup
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 18 teaspoon pepper
- 1 lb asparagus, washed and trimmed (a little more if needed)
- Spray large casserole dish with cooking spray.
- (I use a lasagna pan but you can squeeze everything into a 9x13" casserole dish too.
- It works just fine).
- Preheat oven to 300F.
- Pound each chicken breast until fairly flat with meat mallet.
- They will be "large".
- Dredge 2 chicken breasts in the seasoned flour.
- Over medium high heat in large skillet, place half the butter and half the olive oil.
- Brown the two chicken breast on each side until golden brown.
- Place in prepared casserole dish when done.
- Repeat process with remaining butter and olive oil, and remaining chicken breasts.
- Combine milk, soup, lemon juice and pepper, and pour over and around chicken breasts.
- Lay the asparagus spears around chicken, pressing down into soup mixture.
- Bake for 1 to 1 1/2 hours at 300F The longer you bake, the more tender the chicken seems to get.
- Serve with white rice.
