Recipe
Bring water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to boil in medium saucepan; add asparagus and cook until tender about 3 minutes. Drain. Set aside.
Lay chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/2-inch thickness. Blend flour, salt and pepper in shallow dish; dredge chicken to coat, patting off any excess.
Add vegetable oil to medium, non-stick fry pan over medium heat. Sauté chicken breasts on both sides until browned and firm, about 3 minutes per side or until thermometer inserted into the thickest part measures 160°F. Remove chicken; keep warm until ready to serve. Add onion to skillet and sauté until softened, about 4 minutes. Increase heat to high, add tomato and sauté until most of the moisture has evaporated. Decrease heat to low and add crab meat; toss gently, cooking just until hot.
To serve, set one chicken breast on each plate; arrange 5 asparagus spears on top of each. Spoon some of crab mixture over asparagus and drizzle with Lemon Chive Sauce. Garnish with cherry tomatoes, if desired.
Lemon Chive Sauce:
In small saucepan over low heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter with lemon juice to make sauce. Whisk in cream cheese, milk and chives until smooth.
