Instructions
Prep the Chicken
5 minutesButterfly cut the chicken breast for quicker, even cooking. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and butter chicken seasoning.
Prep the Veggies
5 minutesSlice the cherry tomatoes and chop the parsley for garnish.
Cook the Chicken
15-20 minutesHeat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until nearly done. Pour in the honey garlic sauce and continue cooking until the chicken is fully glazed and cooked through.
Sauté the Asparagus
5 minutesRemove the chicken and use the leftover pan sauce to cook the asparagus until tender.
Heat the Base
1 minuteWarm up the RichPea pouch using either a microwave, stovetop, or stir-fry it directly in the leftover sauce for extra flavour.
Assemble the Plate
2 minutesPlate the base, sliced chicken, sautéed asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and garnish with fresh parsley.
Cooking Tips
- Butterfly the chicken breast evenly to prevent overcooking the thinner side.
- Brown the chicken first, then add honey garlic sauce so it caramelizes gently.
- Sauté the asparagus in leftover chicken glaze for maximum flavour.
Storage Tips
- Store RichPea base and chicken separately if meal-prepping.
- Keeps 3–4 days refrigerated.
- Reheat chicken slowly to avoid tough texture (microwave 50% power).
- Asparagus reheats best in a pan or air fryer, not microwave.
Chef Notes
- A small knob of butter added at the end enriches the glaze.
- Cherry tomatoes balance sweetness from the honey garlic sauce.
- Adding parsley brightens the dish.
Substitutions

Variations
