White Wine Chicken and Asparagus

White Wine Chicken and Asparagus

By Leanne Ely, SavingDinner.com 

Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 (4-oz.) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free flour (such as arrowroot flour, coconut flour, rice flour)
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free low sodium chicken broth (watch for sodium and MSG)
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 1 pound asparagus, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Place chicken breast halves in a large zipper-topped plastic bag and pound to 1/4 inch thick (I like to use my rolling pin); salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the flour in a shallow plate or dish; dredge chicken thru the flour, place it in the skillet and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until no longer pink in the center; remove from skillet and keep warm.
  • In the same skillet, add the wine, broth, and garlic; bring to a boil, scraping up all of the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and cook for 2 minutes. Add asparagus; cover and cook for 3 minutes, or until asparagus is tender-crisp.
  • Remove skillet from heat; stir in parsley and lemon juice. Serve chicken with asparagus and sauce.
