- Asparagus and Mushrooms: Add the chopped asparagus and mushrooms to the pan. Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables. Sautè for a few minutes until asparagus is bright green and tender crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assembly: Layer all the ingredients in the skillet – asparagus, mushrooms, chicken, and lemon slices on top. Squeeze lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables. Add the butter. Cover with the splatter screen or a pan lid and cook on low-medium heat for 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly.
