Dry the chicken tenders with paper towels, then season all sides with salt and pepper.

Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the butter is sizzling, add the chicken tenders and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Add the shallots to the same skillet and stir for about 30 seconds, then add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms start to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and herbes de Provence and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds.

Stir in the chicken stock and wine. Add the asparagus and another pinch of salt.

Set the chicken tenders on top of the vegetables and pour in any accumulated juices. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the center should register 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
