Instructions
In a large deep skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, add the pieces to the skillet and cook over high heat, turning occasionally, until browned, about 8 minutes.
Add the shallots and morels and cook for 2 minutes.
Add the water, cover tightly and simmer over moderately low heat until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, steam the asparagus over 1 inch of water until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
Transfer the chicken to a plate.
Add the lemon juice and zest to the skillet and cook over high heat for 2 minutes. Swirl the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter into the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve with the asparagus.
