Skillet Chicken with Asparagus and Mushrooms
  1. 1

    Assemble all the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Melt the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir the garlic, lemon juice, wine, parsley, basil, salt, and oregano into the hot butter-oil mixture.

  3. 3

    Add the chicken; cook and stir until the chicken is browned, about 3 minutes. Flip, reduce the heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  4. 4

    Add the asparagus; cook and stir until the asparagus is bright green and starting to turn tender, about 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Stir in the mushrooms and cook until they release their juices, about 3 more minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve hot over rice or pasta. Enjoy!
