Fresh asparagus never tasted so good, rolled up in this cheesy, savory chicken dish!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- 2 teaspoons dried tarragon
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 16 stalks fresh asparagus (trimmed)
- 4 chicken breast halves (skinless & boneless)
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 4 slices provolone cheese
Directions
|
Step 1
|
| Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Grease a baking dish. In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, lemon zest, tarragon, salt, and pepper until the mixture is well combined. Set aside. |
|
Step 2
|
| Cook asparagus in the microwave on High until bright green and just tender, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Set the asparagus spears aside. Place a chicken breast between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken breast with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. Repeat with the rest of the chicken breasts. |
|
Step 3
|
| Place 1 slice of provolone on each chicken breast, and top the cheese with 4 asparagus spears per breast. Roll the chicken breasts around the asparagus and cheese, making a tidy package, and place, seam sides down, in the prepared baking dish. With a pastry brush, apply a coating of the mayonnaise mixture to each chicken breast, and sprinkle each with panko crumbs, pressing the crumbs into the chicken to make a coating. |
|
Step 4
|
| Bake in the preheated oven until the crumbs are browned and the chicken juices run clear, about 25 minutes. |
