Notes

I found this recipe in The Australian Women's Weekly 50 fast chicken fillets. I prefer to steam the asparagus rather than boil or microwave.

I personally hate asparagus, and garlic, but my husband loves both. So this is a recipe I might make for him as a treat, or when I’m not feeling too interested in a big meal. It’s always handy to have a few recipes he’ll really enjoy to hand, just as a change.
