Ingredients

• 2 eggs, beaten
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
• 5 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 slices provolone cheese
• 1 cup Italian-style dry bread crumbs
• 1 (10 ounce) can asparagus, drained

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Dip chicken into beaten egg. Lift up so excess egg drips back into the bowl. Press into bread crumbs to coat both sides. Place the breaded chicken, unstacked, onto a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large 2-inch deep skillet over medium heat. Brown chicken on both sides. Add broth and place asparagus evenly over chicken. Lay 1 slice cheese over top.

Step 3

Cover and cook until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside, 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
