It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

ingredients
4 medium skinless, boneless chicken breasts halves
1/4 coarsely ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 pound shiitake mushrooms, sliced thin, no stems
1/4 pound white mushrooms, sliced thin
1 1/2 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2" pieces
1/2 cup light cream
directions
Sprinkle chicken with pepper and 1/2 tsp. salt. In non-stick 12" skillet, heat 1 tsp. olive oil over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking.
Add chicken and cook 6 minutes, reduce heat to medium; turn chicken over and cook 6 to 8 minutes or until juices run clear. Transfer to platter, cover with foil and keep warm.
In same skillet, heat remaining 2 tsp. oil over medium heat until hot. Add onion and mushrooms and cook until vegetables are tender and liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes, stirring often.
Add asparagus, 1/4 cup hot water and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, to mushroom mixture; heat to boiling. Cook until asparagus is tender-crisp, about 5 minutes, stirring often. Stir cream into mixture and heat through, do not boil.
To serve, pour asparagus mixture over chicken.

This recipe was good. I think it was missing something. Not sure what. My husband loved it for the asparagus. I liked it because it was simple. A little plain, but a nice base for something more... Thanks for the recipe!
