I can’t wait for our annual family camping trip when I plan to make this One Skillet Chicken and Asparagus recipe.
I love how easy it is to modify this recipe to use over a campfire instead of your kitchen stove.
One thing I always try to think about when I am planning out our meals for camping is how many dishes will this take to make.
Thankfully this one is a one skillet meal so we won’t be left with cleaning too many dishes after eating.
