4. Mix together the salt, pepper and onion powder; sprinkle over chicken breasts.

5. In a shallow dish mix together the rosemary, thyme and breadcrumbs. Dip the chicken in the egg and roll in the seasoned breadcrumbs.

6. To the skillet used for the asparagus and artichoke hearts, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot, add the bay leaves and breaded chicken breasts to the skillet, without crowding the pan. Sauté the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes over medium-high heat, without moving. Adjust the heat, up or down if needed. Turn the breasts and continue to sauté for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the chicken is evenly browned and cooked throughout.

7. Next, add the asparagus, artichoke hearts, tomatoes, shallots, olives and white wine; drizzle evenly with lemon juice. Cover and lower the heat. Cook for an additional minute, turn breasts over, cover, and cook another minute - until wine cooks out.
