Servings: 3

Ingredients:

• 24 ounce boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 3 tablespoon butter
• 5 teaspoon garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup chicken stock
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Gather and prep all of your ingredients.
2. Season chicken with salt, pepper, onion powder, and Italian seasoning on both sides.
3. In a pan over medium heat, add butter and garlic. Let garlic cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

7. Allow asparagus to cook through while sauce reduces, stirring occasionally. About 8-10 minutes.
8. Serve while hot, scraping out any excess sauce from the pan. Enjoy!
