One-Pan Chicken Bites and Asparagus Recipes
Description
One-Pan Chicken Bites and Asparagus Recipes is a straightforward dish featuring cubed chicken breast seasoned with paprika, garlic parsley salt, and black pepper, then cooked in a blend of butter and avocado oil until browned. The asparagus is trimmed and either kept whole or cut, then sautéed in the same pan with butter and oil, seasoned with the remaining garlic parsley salt. Pressed garlic is added toward the end to avoid burning, followed by the return of the chicken and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice. This cooking method produces juicy chicken bites and slightly tender asparagus with a hint of garlic and lemon freshness.
The recipe is cooked entirely in one pan for easy preparation and cleanup, resulting in a meal with complementary textures and a mild savory flavor enhanced by the herbaceous salt seasoning and citrus. The dish works well on its own but can be served with rice or bread as desired.
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp black pepper ground
- 1 tbsp garlic parsley salt
- 1 lb asparagus
- 4 tbsp butter unsalted
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 garlic pressed, cloves
- 1 tbsp parsley fresh
Instructions
- Cut the chicken into 2-inch cubes. Season them with paprika, half of the garlic parsley salt, and black pepper.
- Preheat a pan with 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the chicken into the pan and cook them until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
- Trim the rough ends of the asparagus. Feel free to cut the asparagus down into bite-sized pieces or keep it as-is.
- Add the remaining butter and oil to the same pan. Add the asparagus and season it with the remaining garlic parsley salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the pressed garlic into the pan, followed by the chicken. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Serve and enjoy!
