Chickpea and Asparagus Salad

I'm working at home this week on a big project, so dinner has been simple for the last few days. Dinner last night was literally 10 minutes to prepare - and it was certainly 10 minutes well spent.

From the grocery I picked up some fresh pencil thin locally grown asparagus spears, a container of pesto and some grilled chicken breast. 

I chopped the asparagus into a skillet and sauteed with olive oil until tender.
Rinsed a can of good creamy chickpeas, stirred them into the asparagus, tossed that with the pesto and served it at room temperature beside the grilled chicken.

Note: that is NOT chocolate sauce on the chicken! It's balsamic glaze!
