Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Crab Imperial
In a bowl, mix together crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, and lemon juice. Set aside.
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness, season with salt and pepper, and coat them with panko breadcrumbs.
Cook the Chicken
Heat some oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear the panko-coated chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Bake with Crab Imperial
Transfer the seared chicken breasts to a baking dish, top each breast with the crab imperial mixture, and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Prepare the Asparagus
While the chicken is baking, steam the asparagus until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
Make the Lemon Butter
In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
