Chicken, Pancetta and Asparagus over Couscous

  • 3 oz pancetta, diced
  • 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
  • 1/2 sweet yellow onion, cut into large chunks
  • 20 cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 10 asparagus spears, ends trimmed off, cut into thirds
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Couscous or brown rice, prepared per instructions
  • A handful of fresh basil, chopped

Cook pancetta in a skillet over medium heat. Once it's crispy, remove from heat and drain on a paper towel.

Add chicken and onions to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 7 minutes. Add the tomatoes, asparagus, and pancetta, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and stir frequently for 45 seconds. Remove from heat and serve over couscous or rice. Top with fresh basil. Enjoy.
