Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds of chicken (approx. 3-6 large cuts chopped into smaller pieces)
  • 10-15 asparagus sticks
  • 1/2 cup of liquid chicken broth
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon of butter
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of dried parsley (or 1-2 sprigs of fresh parsley)
  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • pinch of salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Chop the uncooked chicken into small pieces.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan to medium temperature, and cook the chicken for 7-8 minutes with a tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper. Turn the chicken to both sides so that it cooks on both sides.
  • Add the asparagus, broth, butter, and garlic powder to the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes with a cover on top of the pan.
  • Add the heavy cream, parsley, and parmesan into the pan and let it cook into the sauces for 2-3 minutes.
  • Once it all looks cooked, take off the stove and serve while warm.
