A mild curry sauce nicely coats tender chicken and asparagus in this "must-have" recipe. It's a classic dish I've used for years.—Miriam Christophel, Battle Creek, Michigan

Ingredients

  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen asparagus spears, thawed
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice, curry and pepper; set aside.
  2. Place half of the asparagus in a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Spread with half of the soup mixture.
  3. In a large skillet, saute chicken in oil until no longer pink. Place chicken over soup mixture. Top with remaining asparagus and soup mixture.
  4. Cover and bake at 375° for 20 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5-8 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.
