I love asparagus and mushrooms and made this one evening with ingredients I had on hand for a quick dinner. It's been a favorite of mine ever since!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

A quick and easy chicken recipe for when you're looking to lighten up dinner. We love mushrooms and asparagus together. Combined with sliced chicken breasts, it reminds us of stir-fry and tastes like spring. With hints of garlic and lemon, we enjoyed this dish. Depending on how you serve it, this can be a low-carb meal. If you're not watching carbs, it would be delicious served over rice.
