The first night I tried this recipe, there was a meteor shower, that’s how I came up with the name. It kind of stuck and so my kids just refer to it as star-struck chicken. It’s quick to make, it’s healthy and it tastes great.
4 chicken breasts sliced into thin strips
1 pound fresh asparagus trimmed and cut 1″
4 ounces fresh mushrooms
1 dried tomato, finely snipped
1 cup instant low-sodium chicken bullion
1/4 basil
1/2 cup water
Directions:
Coat an unheated large skillet with Pam.
Over medium heat cook chicken until juices run clear, retain juices.
Stir-fry asparagus in skillet about 4 minutes.
Add mushrooms and stir-fry 2 minutes.
Add tomato pieces, basil, water, and chicken bullion.
Cook until thick and bubbly.
Health Benefits:
Asparagus is a potent antioxidant that is high in nutrients. A natural aphrodisiac, it has been claimed to increase the libido. High in protein and low in fat, chicken is such a versatile meat that you can serve it several times in a week without cooking the same thing over and over. Mushrooms are high in zinc, potassium and a great source of fiber, though low in calories.
