Two white plates with seared chicken breasts, asparagus, mushrooms, and onions, garnished with herbs. A hand holds a knife nearby.

Ingredients:

  • 12 ounces chicken breast, with skin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 6 ounces brown mushrooms (crimini), sliced
  • 1 large stalk celery (64g), diced
  • 1 medium (2-1/2" diameter) onion (110g), thinly sliced, minced or pressed
  • 2 cloves fresh garlic
  • 8 ounces asparagus
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon Reserva sherry vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 ounce fresh parsley

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 475°.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a medium skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil and cook chicken skin side down for 6-8 minutes until browned. Place chicken skin side up on a sheet pan and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
  3. While the chicken is in the oven, slice mushrooms, dice celery, thinly slice onions, and mince garlic.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet used to brown the chicken. Heat over medium-high, add mushrooms and sauté while stirring 5 minutes. Add remaining oil (2 teaspoons) to the pan, along with celery, onion, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook another 5 minutes, until onions are softened.
  5. After the chicken has roasted for 20 minutes, add the asparagus to the sheet pan and roast for another 5 minutes.
  6. Add the asparagus, thyme, sherry vinegar, and chicken broth to the skillet with the mushrooms. Top with the chicken breasts, skin side up, and cook another 2 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender-crisp and chicken is cooked through. Serve topped with parsley.
