Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil ~ 4 tablespoons
  • 6 spears asparagus
  • 8 ounces lump crab meat
  • 1/4 teaspoon old bay seasoning

Hollandaise Sauce

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 cup butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Clean asparagus spears.
  • Steam asparagus in a saucepan or microwave for 3 minutes on high. Or, blanch in boiling water for about 1.5-2 minutes. Set aside.
  • Trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts.
  • Lay pieces of chicken between sheets of plastic wrap and use a meat tenderizer or flat mallet to pound them to about 1/8 inch thin on the counter or a cutting board.
  • Then cut the chicken pieces in half so you have four pieces total.
  • Drain crab and mix with Old Bay and lemon juice.
  • In a large shallow dish, stir together the flour, salt, and pepper.
  • Dredge chicken in seasoned flour.
  • Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a heavy skillet on medium heat.
  • Cook the floured chicken breast in the oil for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Remove to baking dish.
  • Make the Hollandaise by whisking 4 egg yolks with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper into a food processor.
  • While the processor is running slowly drizzle 1 cup of melted butter into the egg mixture.
  • Finish the dish by topping each chicken breast with 2 asparagus spears, equal portions of crabmeat, and a healthy drizzle of Hollandaise sauce.
  • Bake in a 350-degree oven for about 5 minutes to warm.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

I did not calculate the nutrition for this recipe because you only use a little bit of the Hollandaise sauce and a small amount of the flour and olive oil in the end. This resulted in a very high incorrect calculation.
