Ingredients
4(6 ounce)boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½cuplight garlic-and-herb spreadable cheese, such as Alouette
6sliceshavarti cheese
16thin fresh asparagus spears, trimmed
1teaspoondried tarragon
¼teaspoonground pepper
⅛teaspoonsalt
2tablespoonsextra-virgin olive oil
DirectionsPreheat oven to 400°F. Place chicken breasts on a work surface lined with plastic wrap or parchment paper and cover with another sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, lightly pound the chicken to 1/2-inch thickness. Spread each chicken breast with 2 tablespoons spreadable cheese, leaving about a 1/2-inch border; top each with 1 1/2 slices cheese. Place 4 asparagus spears at the narrow end of each chicken breast; roll up tightly to encase the cheese and asparagus in chicken. (The asparagus ends will stick out on either side.) Secure the chicken with wooden picks and place, seam-side down, on work surface. Sprinkle the top of each chicken breast evenly with tarragon, pepper and salt.Heat oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, seam-side up; cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn seam-side down and place the skillet in the oven. Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion of chicken registers 160°F, about 20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Remove the picks from the chicken before serving.Originally appeared: EatingWell.com, January 2022

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
