Turmeric-Black Pepper Chicken With Asparagus

Preparation

1. Step 1

   In a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together ¼ cup water with the honey, pepper and ½ teaspoon salt; set honey mixture aside.

2. Step 2

   In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, turmeric and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the chicken and toss until coated.

3. Step 3

   In a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high. Add the chicken and cook until the turmeric is fragrant and the chicken is golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

4. Step 4

   Add the asparagus, season with salt, stir to combine and cook until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes.

5. Step 5

   Add the honey mixture and cook, stirring, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.

6. Step 6

   Remove from heat and stir in the vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with lime squeezed over top, if you like.
