Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
  • 4 Bone-in chicken breast
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) if baking, or prepare a large deep skillet for stovetop cooking.
  2. 2
    In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, and paprika.
  3. 3
    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then dredge them in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  4. 4
    Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. 5
    Add the chicken breasts, skin-side down if skin is present, or meat-side down. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove chicken to a plate.
  6. 6
    In the same skillet, add the chicken broth (2 cups) to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  7. 7
    Stir the remaining flour mixture into the broth until smooth to create a light sauce.
  8. 8
    Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the small new potatoes and half of the chopped fresh dill.
  9. 9
    Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  10. 10
    Arrange the asparagus spears on top of the chicken and potatoes.
  11. 11
    Cover again and simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  12. 12
    Remove from heat. Stir in the lemon juice and the remaining fresh dill.
  13. 13
    Serve immediately, spooning the sauce and vegetables over the chicken.
