Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons drained capers
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 1/4 teaspoons fennel seeds, ground in spice mill or in mortar with pestle
1 pound medium asparagus spears, trimmed
2 cups sliced shallots (about 12 ounces)
1 1/4 pounds 1/4- to 1/3-inch-thick chicken cutlets (about 8)

Steps:

  • Whisk lemon juice and mustard in small bowl. Gradually whisk in 2 tablespoons oil. Stir in drained capers and chopped tarragon. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat broiler. Place remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in large bowl. Stir in ground fennel seeds. Add asparagus spears to bowl and toss to coat lightly. Arrange asparagus in single layer at 1 short end of large rimmed baking sheet. Add shallots to same bowl; toss to coat with oil mixture. Arrange in center of same rimmed baking sheet. Add chicken to same bowl; toss to coat. Using tongs, transfer chicken to same rimmed baking sheet, arranging in single layer at opposite end of sheet. Sprinkle vegetables and chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Broil chicken and vegetables 4 minutes. Turn chicken cutlets and asparagus spears over; toss shallots. Broil until chicken is cooked through and asparagus and shallots are brown in spots, watching carefully to avoid burning, about 4 minutes. Divide chicken cutlets among plates; top with shallots. Arrange asparagus spears alongside. Drizzle mustard dressing over chicken and serve.

I'm not a fan of shallots, but I loved this recipe. The shallots added a nice depth of flavor without being overpowering.

I found the chicken to be a bit dry, but I think that was because I overcooked it slightly. Next time, I'll be more careful with the cooking time.

The lemon-butter sauce was a bit too tart for my taste, but that's easily remedied with a little less lemon juice.

I'm not a huge fan of capers, but they added a nice briny touch to the dish. I might use a bit less next time, but overall, I loved the combination of flavors.
