MAIN Chicken Bruschetta with Shaved Asparagus, Cannellini & Parmesan Salad

Prep

Cook

Total

Yield 4-6 servings

A salad concept inspired by my favorite restaurant in Richmond, Mamma Zu's.  It's light, lemony and really simple.  It's no surprise, therefore, that I paired it with an equally bright Chicken Bruschetta.  Enjoy this dish when you feel like you've overindulged a bit too much.
