Buttery Garlic-Herb Chicken
with Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus & Herbed Potatoes
- Milk
This meal is kinda like those movies that pack in as many famous actors as it can. Is the garlic-herb butter chicken the star? Or is it the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus in a best-supporting role? Maybe it’s the herby roasted potatoes! Although, the unexpected garlic cameo in the pan sauce is sure to draw critical acclaim. Whichever star of the show is your fave, this dinner is sure to be up for nominations. And the award for best chef goes to... you!

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Bring garlic herb butter to room temperature. Wash and dry produce. • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces; toss on one side of a baking sheet with half the basil oil (all for 4), salt, and pepper. (For 4, spread potatoes out across entire sheet.) • Peel garlic. Place whole cloves in the center of a small piece of foil. Drizzle with oil; season with salt and pepper. Cinch into a packet and place on same sheet. • Roast on top rack until potatoes are browned and tender and garlic is softened, 20-25 minutes. (You’ll add more to the sheet after 15 minutes.)
• Trim and discard woody bottom ends from asparagus.
• Gather asparagus into four even bundles (eight bundles for 4 servings) on a clean work surface. Starting 1 inch from the bottom of the spears, roll up each bundle in a slice of prosciutto, so that the prosciutto covers as much length as possible. TIP: Tug the prosciutto a little as you wrap to keep it tight around the asparagus. • Once potatoes have roasted 15 minutes, remove sheet from oven. Carefully place wrapped asparagus on empty side. Roast until asparagus are tender and prosciutto is crispy on the bottom, 10 minutes. (For 4 servings, leave potatoes and garlic roasting; add asparagus to a second sheet and roast on middle rack.) • Remove sheet from oven; flip wrapped asparagus. Return to oven until crispy all over, 2-4 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season generously all over with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side. • In the last 2 minutes of cooking, reduce heat to low; add half the garlic herb butter to pan. Spoon over chicken until coated. Turn off heat; leaving butter in pan, transfer chicken to a cutting board.
• While chicken rests, carefully transfer garlic to a cutting board and mash cloves with a fork until smooth. • Heat pan used for chicken over medium-high heat. Stir in demi-glace and ¼ cup water (1⁄3 cup for 4 servings); simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Turn off heat. • Stir in crème fraîche and garlic. (TIP: If sauce seems too thick, add water 1 tsp at a time until it reaches a drizzling consistency.) Season with salt and pepper.
• Once potatoes are finished roasting, carefully add potatoes and remaining garlic herb butter to a large bowl. Toss until butter has melted and potatoes are evenly coated. • Divide chicken, wrapped asparagus, and potatoes between plates. Drizzle chicken with as much sauce as you like. Serve with any remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

Reviews from our home cooks
Loved this recipe!! I mean anything wrapped in Prosciutto is top notch in my book!! The sauce you put on top of the chicken is spot on too. It ties everything together. This recipe does require a lot of multitasking, because even though the oven does most of the work, there are things to do to the items that are in the oven.
The buttery herb chicken was amazing. All the flavors complimented each other so well. Easy too and my family loved the cream sauce to drizzle on the chicken. Some of my potatoes were rotten but the meal is my favorite so far.
This was an outstanding meal, even though it arrived a day late, on Friday, April 22, rather than Thursday. The prosciutto-wrapped asparagus was classy, and we LOVED the garlic sauce for the chicken.
The chicken tasted delicious and the buttery garlic sauce was a great addition. The asparagus was a little stringy and overall it seemed a bit salty but overall it was delicious and would definitely order again
I was a little confused about the "herbed potatoes" since all the recipe said to put on the potatoes was salt, pepper & oil. I guess the black pepper is the herb? I decided to make mashed potatoes instead. I would cook the chicken longer if I made it again, but it was pretty good with the sauce. I really liked the prosciutto wrapped asparagus!
This was fantastic. We had never eaten fresh asparagus nor prosciutto before, but loved it cooked that way. The chicken and potatoes were also great. At 68, you are teaching me a new way to cook instead of the same boring meals I was cooking. Thank you.
Your cooking instructions for the meals we have tried so far includes cooking everything on super high and super fast. With this recipe, we grilled the chicken on the BBQ along with the Asparagus (wrapped in foil) Fried the potatoes and made the sauce at the end. It was absolutely delicious with very little mess to clean up. Still only took about 40 minutes start to finish.
This was fantastic! We all loved the delicious prosciutto wrapped asparagus. My son loved the sauce and ate all the leftovers with chips while my husband raved about the potatoes! Great meal!
I got red potatoes instead of Yukon Gold, and with this recipe they were the absolute most perfectly roasted potatoes I've ever done! My husband said the asparagus was also the best he'd ever had in his life... not to mention the delicious chicken. A huge win in my house!
Not a repeat for us. The best parts were the chicken and sauce. Had to make the sauce without the garlic, though. Some of the produce I am getting from HelloFresh is skimpy and small, and the garlic was an example of this. These were not healthy garlic cloves. Peeling them, and there is not much there. Baking in the foil as instructed, they were so slim and small they dried out and burnt. Ended up throwing away. First time trying prosciutto-wrapped asparagus. Glad I got to try, as I will not eat again. Asparagus is my favorite veggie. These were so thin, not even baby asparagus. By the time you bent the ends to get them to break naturally, you didn't have much there. And the tips were already getting mushy, so had to cut some out. Prosciutto? Not a fan.
