--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  4                    Boneless chicken breasts
  1      tablespoon    Fresh lemon juice
  1      teaspoon      Salt -- optional
    1/2  teaspoon      Pepper -- fresh ground
    1/2  teaspoon      Grated lemon zest
    3/4  pound         Fresh asparagus -- trimmed
  1      tablespoon    Olive oil
  2      teaspoons     Seasoned dry bread crumbs
  4                    Slices low-fat turkey ham
  8                    Lemon slices -- for garnish

In med. bowl, combine chicken, lemon juice, 1/2 of the salt, pepper and
lemon zest. Toss to mix. On a large flat plate, coat the chicken with the
seasoned bread crumbs. Spray Pam on a non-stick skillet and heat over
medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until golden
brown outside and white throughout (but still juicy--about 5-7 minutes).
Place chicken on a serving platter. Meanwhile, steam the fresh asparagus
for approx. 5-7 minutes. When done, season the asparagus with the
remaining lemon zest and salt and pepper. Divide asparagus into 4 bundles.
Wrap each asparagus bundle with a slice of the turkey "ham" and place on
top of chicken. Garnish with lemon slices. Judy Garnett,pjxg05a Raleigh,NC
