Method

Main Course

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic (use a garlic press or finely chop), chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the boneless chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Let them sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

  3. 3

    Bake the Chicken

    Place the marinated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

Side Dish

  1. 4

    Prepare the Asparagus

    While the chicken is baking, rinse the asparagus under cold water and trim the woody ends. Place them on another baking sheet.

  2. 5

    Season the Asparagus

    Drizzle the asparagus with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and squeeze the juice of the lemon over the top.

  3. 6

    Roast the Asparagus

    Roast the asparagus in the oven (you can put it in when the chicken has about 10 minutes left) for about 10-12 minutes, until tender but still crisp.

  4. 7

    Finish with Parmesan

    Remove the asparagus from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.

Dessert

  1. 8

    Prepare the Cake Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.

  2. 9

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake according to package instructions, typically around 30-35 minutes at 350°F (175°C), or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  3. 10

    Frost the Cake

    Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it with chocolate frosting. Spread evenly over the top and sides.
