    Recipe Introduction


    Make dinner for your family in a flash

    Serving: 4
    Total Time: 30 minutes

    2 tablespoons vegetable oil

    12 ounces skinless, boneless chicken-breast halves, cut on the diagonal into 1/8-inch-thick slices

    2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
    2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger
    1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut on the diagonal into 3-inch pieces
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 package (8 ounces) sliced mushrooms
    1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
    1 lime, cut into wedges

    1. In nonstick 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger, and cook 2 to 3 minutes, until chicken loses its pink color throughout, stirring constantly.
    Transfer chicken to bowl.

    2. To same skillet, add asparagus, salt, pepper, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and 2 tablespoons water, and cook 3 minutes or until tender-crisp, stirring frequently. Add mushrooms and cook 1 minute. Return chicken to skillet; add
    green onions and remaining ginger and cook 1 minute. Serve with lime wedges.

    To trim asparagus, bend the stalk; it will break off at the spot where it becomes too tough to eat.
