Easy Chicken, Asparagus & Mushroom Skillet – One-Pan Healthy Dinner

This sautéed chicken with asparagus and mushrooms is cooked in a flavorful garlic and olive oil base. Feel free to add extra mushrooms if you like. Serve it with rice or pasta—and enjoy with a glass of white wine.


Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons white cooking wine
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 2 medium skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, sliced
  • ½ pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into thirds
  • 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms

Directions

Step 1:

Gather all ingredients, Melt butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir garlic, lemon juice, wine, parsley, basil, salt, and oregano into hot butter-oil mixture.

Step 2:

Add chicken; cook and stir until chicken is browned, about 3 minutes. Flip, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink inside, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). 

Step 3:

Add asparagus; cook and stir until asparagus is bright green and starting to become tender, about 3 minutes.

Step 4:

Stir in mushrooms and cook until they release their juices, about 3 more minutes.

Step 5:

Serve hot over rice or pasta. Enjoy!
