    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat chicken dry.

    On a separate cutting board, cover chicken with plastic wrap and pound with a heavy object into an even thickness. Feel free to use a disposable gallon-size bag instead of wrap.

    Remove plastic wrap. Season chicken on both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Lightly brush melted butter on both sides of chicken.

    Transfer chicken to bowl with breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture and flip until completely coated, pressing gently to adhere.

    Start Chicken and Add Asparagus

    Transfer chicken to one side of prepared baking sheet. Spray evenly with cooking spray.

    Roast in hot oven, 7 minutes.

    While chicken roasts, in another mixing bowl, combine asparagus, 2 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper until asparagus is coated.

    Carefully, remove baking sheet from oven. Add asparagus to empty half and spread into a single layer. Baking sheet will be hot! Use a utensil.
