Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in a baking dish.
- 2
Season the Chicken
Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken breasts. Mince the garlic and sprinkle it over the chicken, followed by the rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the chicken for extra flavor.
- 3
Bake the Chicken
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- 4
Prepare the Asparagus
While the chicken is baking, rinse the asparagus under cold water, trim the ends, and place them on a separate baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and toss to coat.
- 5
Roast the Asparagus
Add the asparagus to the oven during the last 10 minutes of the chicken's cooking time. Roast until tender and slightly crispy, about 10 minutes.
- 6
Serve
Once the chicken and asparagus are cooked, remove them from the oven. Plate the chicken alongside the asparagus, and sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the asparagus. Garnish with lemon wedges if desired.
