Chicken Asparagus Marsala

Asparagus always give a dish an elegant flair. Here, it also adds beautiful color.

4 Free Range Chicken Breast Halves, Boned and Skinned
10 Ounces Asparagus Spears, Cut
2 Tablespoons Butter
1 Tablespoon Coconut or Grapeseed Oil
1⁄2 Pound Mushrooms
1⁄4 Cup Marsala Wine
1⁄2 Teaspoon Salt
1⁄4 Cup Water
1⁄8 Teaspoon Pepper
1 Tablespoon Parsley, Chopped Diagonally into Pieces

Pound the chicken pieces to 1⁄4-inch thickness. Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium-high temperature. Add chicken and cook, turning, for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is brown. Remove chicken and set aside. To the drippings remaining in the frying pan, add the asparagus and mushrooms and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan, add the marsala wine, water, salt, and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a boil for 2 minutes to reduce the liquid. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 3 minutes or until the chicken and vegetables are tender. Arrange the chicken on a serving platter. Spoon the vegetable sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
