Green Chilies Chicken over Asparagus

Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon roasted garlic and herb seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 lb fresh asparagus spears
  • 2 tablespoons + ¾ cup water, divided
  • ¾ cup plain Greek (or regular) yogurt
  • 1 (1.25-oz) packet broccoli cheese soup mix
  • ¼ cup diced green chiles

Steps

    1. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Coat both sides of chicken with seasoning. Place oil in pan, then add chicken; cook 2–3 minutes on each side or until golden. Trim asparagus, removing tough root end.
    2. Reduce heat to medium-low. Arrange asparagus spears over chicken. Add 2 tablespoons water and cover; cook 4–5 minutes and until chicken is 165°F and asparagus is tender. Transfer asparagus to serving plates; top with chicken.
    3. Whisk together remaining ¾ cup water, yogurt, and dry soup mix in small saucepan; bring just to a boil on medium. Reduce heat to low and stir in green chiles; simmer 2–3 minutes or until thickened. Spoon sauce over chicken and serve.

Hummus Crostini

Ingredients

  • ½ cup roasted peppers, sliced
  • ½ cup tomato basil bruschetta topping
  • 4 plain English muffins, split
  • 4 oz plain whipped cream cheese
  • 4 oz Deli roasted garlic (or classic) hummus

Steps

    1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Slice peppers. Combine bruschetta topping and peppers. Split muffins and bake 5 minutes or until toasted.
    2. Blend cream cheese and hummus together until smooth. Spread hummus mixture evenly over each muffin; top with bruschetta mixture. Bake 3 more minutes or until hot. Serve. (Makes 8 servings.)

Serving Suggestions

  • Complete your meal with a Caesar salad and apple pie for dessert.
  • For a milder version, use fewer chiles in the sauce. Try the crostini with any flavor hummus.
