Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

  • Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.

  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter.

  3. Add the chicken pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and cooked through (about 5–7 minutes).

  4. Push the chicken to one side of the skillet and add the remaining butter and minced garlic.

  5. Once fragrant, add the asparagus and stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp.

  6. Toss the chicken and asparagus together to coat everything in the garlic butter sauce.

  7. Remove from heat, garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges if desired.

Notes

  • Tip: Don’t overcrowd the pan to ensure the chicken gets a good sear.

  • Variation: Swap asparagus with green beans or broccoli if desired.

  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
