What curry powder did you use in this chicken and asparagus bake?

Any kind of mild curry powder will work for this recipe, but Penzeys Sweet Curry is one of my favorites.

What if you don’t like curry?

I don’t think this recipe would be as great if the curry powder was just omitted. Its flavor really binds the ingredients together. However, if you have chicken and asparagus and don’t like curries, try chicken and asparagus with 3 cheeses or chicken and roasted asparagus with tahini sauce.
