Creating Garlic Butter Chicken Bites with Asparagus is straightforward. Follow these easy steps:

1. Prep Ingredients: Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and trim asparagus. This makes cooking quicker.

2. Heat Pan: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.

3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet. Season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté until browned and cooked through (about 5-6 minutes).

4. Add Asparagus: Once the chicken is nearly done, add asparagus to the skillet. Sauté together for about 2 minutes or until the asparagus is bright green and tender-crisp.

5. Add Garlic: Push the chicken and asparagus to one side of the skillet. In the cleared section, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

6. Combine & Toss: Stir everything together so the garlic butter coats the chicken and asparagus evenly. Adjust seasoning, if necessary.

7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a dish that’s not only delicious but also incredibly satisfying to make. The process is quick, allowing you more time to celebrate your cooking achievements!
