Instructions
- Place asparagus spears in a saucepan and mash with a fork. Add cream and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 20 minutes. Cover and keep warm.
- Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic on a work surface. Firmly pound with the smooth side of a meat mallet to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add flour to a large, flat dish. Beat eggs thoroughly in a shallow bowl. Add bread crumbs to another large, flat dish.
- Dredge each piece of chicken in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with bread crumbs.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook breaded chicken in batches until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve with asparagus cream sauce.
