Wash, trim off 1″, and peel asparagus stem to reveal a beautiful green interior. This is tedious, but will look so lovely. Put on a baking sheet, add salt, pepper and oil. Mix it up with your hands. Bake in a 400-degree oven for 7 minutes. When they are done, sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
Variation 1: For an elegant presentation, you could wrap the asparagus in green onion that has been dipped in hot water to make it pliable. Create a bunch for each guest. Just make sure to turn them over half way through cooking.
Variation 2: If you have any asparagus left over, chop them up for a simple and elegant salad of greens, tomato, red onion, goat cheese and homemade vinaigrette.
1/4 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup fat-free, lower-sodium chicken broth
Preheat oven to 350°. Heat a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach to pan; cook 1 minute or until spinach wilts, tossing constantly. Place spinach in a colander; press until barely moist. Wipe pan clean.
Combine spinach, cheese, nuts, thyme, juice, and garlic. Cut a horizontal slit through the thickest portion of each chicken breast half to form a pocket. Stuff 3 tablespoons filling into each pocket. Seal with wooden picks. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 3 minutes on each side or until brown. Add broth, and cover pan. Place pan in oven. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until done.
