Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces asparagus trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 8 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the asparagus and mushrooms. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  3. Return the chicken to the skillet and pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  4. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top and stir until melted and combined.
  5. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
