How To Make chicken breasts with asparagus and artichokes
-
Step 1Place the chicken breasts between 2 sheets of wax paper. Flatten to 1/4 inch thickness with a rolling pin or meat mallet. Set aside.

Step 2Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Arrange 2 asparagus spears, one cheese slice, and one sliced mushroom on half of each chicken breast. Top each chicken breast evenly with chopped artichoke heart and pimento. Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper.
-
Step 3Fold the remaining half of each chicken breast over the vegetable mixture; secure with wooden picks.
-
Step 4Dredge the chicken in flour; dip in beaten egg, and coat with bread crumbs.
-
Step 5Combine the butter and oil in a large skillet; cook over medium heat until the butter melts. Add the chicken, and cook for 7 to 10 minutes on each side or until browned.
-
Step 6Remove the chicken from the skillet; drain on paper towels.
-
Step 7Place the chicken on a baking sheet. Top each with 1 remaining cheese slice.
-
Step 8Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until the cheese melts and the chicken is done.
