Ingredients:

Serving

16 oz boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 lb fresh asparagus spears, trimmed
4 1/2 tsp olive or canola oil
2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup chopped green onions
2 tsp cornstarch
1 cup chicken broth

Directions:

Flatten chicken breasts slightly. Wrap each around five asparagus spears; secure with toothpicks. Place in a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the oil, lemon juice and seasonings; pour over bundles. Cover asparagus tips with foil.
Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle with the onions. Bake 12-15 minutes longer or until the chicken juices run clear and asparagus is crisp-tender. Remove bundles to a serving platter and keep warm.
In a saucepan, combine cornstarch and broth until smooth; stir in pan juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove toothpicks from bundles; top with sauce.
