Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Asparagus - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 whole chicken breasts, halved, boned and pounded (very important step, pound them)
    24 medium asparagus spears, lightly blanched
    1/4 cup butter, melted
    1/4 cup Dijon mustard
    2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
    1/4 cup white wine
    1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
    1 tablespoon parmesan cheese
    2 tablespoons parsley
    Blender Hollandaise sauce
    1 cup butter
    4 egg yolks
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon sugar
    1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
    1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Preparation
    Prepare chicken and asparagus.
    Combine butter, mustard, garlic and wine in a pie plate.
    Dip the chicken breast in butter mixture to coat them.
    Place 3 asparagus spears on each breast and roll, securing with a toothpick.
    Mix bread crumbs, parmesan and parsley together in a different pie plate.
    Roll chicken breasts in the bread crumb mixture.
    Bake 30 minutes at 350.
    I serve this with blender hollandaise sauce and lemon rice.
    Blender Hollandaise Sauce:
    Heat butter to a full boil, being careful not to brown.
    Combine all other ingredients in blender with blender turned on high, slowly pour butter into yolk mixture in a thin stream until all is added.
    Keeps well in refrigerator for several days.
    When reheating, heat over hot (not boiling water) in top of double boiler.
    Makes 1 1/4 cups of sauce.
