Steps:
- To make the seasoned bread crumbs, heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the garlic and sauté briefly until pale gold. Add the bread crumbs, season with salt and pepper, and lower the heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bread crumbs are toasted, about 3 minutes. Pour into a small bowl and add the parsley, lemon zest, and Parmesan. Toss well. (The crumbs keep, tightly sealed and refrigerated, for several days.)
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter a shallow baking dish that is long enough to hold the asparagus. Toss the cooled asparagus with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the asparagus into 4 equal bundles. Arrange 2 slices of the prosciutto on a work surface so they slightly overlap each other. Place an asparagus bundle on top and roll up carefully in the prosciutto. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Flatten the top of each bundle slightly and sprinkle with one-fourth of the seasoned bread crumbs.
- Roast in the oven until heated through and crisp, about 10 minutes. Serve at once.

BREADED LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN BREASTS
This is one of my family's favorite chicken recipes (I have many posted on this site!) --- to save time you may coat with the breading mixture, roll up the breasts and refrigerate until ready to bake --- the subtle lemon flavor gives the chicken it a really nice kick --- there is no need to pound the breasts thin just roll them up as tightly as you can they will stay together during and after baking, also I have even topped them with sliced mozzarella cheese :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Butter an 11 x 7-inch or a 9-inch baking pan baking dish (if doubling the recipe to make 12 breasts, use a 13 x 9-inch pan.
- In a bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, parsley, salt and pepper.
- In another bowl combine the melted butter/garlic mixture and lemon juice; whisk well to combine (if you run out of butter when dipping the breasts, which has happened to me many times, just melt about another 1/4 cup butter and add in about 1 tablespoon more of lemon juice in the microwave.
- Dip chicken in butter mixture, then roll in crumbs (patting down the crumbs into the chicken breasts).
- Roll-up chicken jelly-roll style; place seam side down in a greased baking dish drizzle with any remaining butter mixture; sprinkle with paprika if desired.
- Place a slice of cheese on top the last 10 minutes of baking if desired.
- Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked though (baking time will vary depending on how thin you pounded the chicken).
Tips:
- To achieve the perfect crispy coating on the chicken, make sure to coat it evenly in the breadcrumb mixture. Press the crumbs firmly onto the chicken to ensure they adhere properly.
- Don't overcrowd the chicken in the NuWave oven. Place the chicken pieces in a single layer to allow for even cooking and browning.
- Keep an eye on the chicken while it is cooking. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the chicken pieces. To ensure they are cooked through without overcooking, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- For a healthier version of the roasted asparagus, reduce or eliminate the amount of butter or oil used. You can also use a cooking spray instead.
- To add more flavor to the roasted asparagus, sprinkle it with additional herbs and spices of your choice, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Conclusion:
This breaded lemon pepper chicken with roasted asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, while the asparagus is tender and roasted to perfection. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
