Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    On a baking sheet, toss the asparagus and cherry tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Bake the Chicken and Vegetables

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the baking sheet with the vegetables. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and vegetables. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
