Saucy Chicken and Asparagus

SUBMITTED BY: Vicki Schlechter

"You won't believe how delicious, yet how easy this dish is. We tasted it for the first time when our son's godparents made it for us. Even my grandmother--who's 95 years old--likes to serve this creamy dish for luncheons with friends! --Vicki Schlechter, Davis, California"
