Most of the recipes on the blog are made rather effortlessly; but there are recipes I make that require some effort and time devoted to the preparation process.  This Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Breasts is one of those recipes.  It may take a bit more time to prepare but the cooking time is under 40 minutes and is totally worth the extra minutes it takes to assemble and brown up the stuffed chicken breasts. We love serving this Savory Herb Rice with the stuffed chicken.

    OMG – I added a few fresh mushrooms – didn’t have the ham and we aren’t mustard fans. Used provolone cheese too,. ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!

      Yes! Just take the stuffed chicken breasts out of the refrigerator about 30 minutes before cooking them so they chicken comes to room temp.

    This was delicious! I didn’t precook the asparagus and it was perfect and didn’t use the ham. Browned them in my cast iron pan then put it in oven so a simple clean up!

    Awesome recipe. We just loved this. It is a healthy dish without cutting out any taste. I used a little more Parmesan and they were amazing.

    Loved it. A bit of a process for a weeknight meal, not difficult but enough steps to take some time. Totally worth it though. Will definitely be making again…on a Saturday!
