1 Prepare the Ingredients
Trim woody ends off asparagus. Halve lemon lengthwise and cut into wedges. In a mixing bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Set aside. Place butter in other mixing bowl and microwave for 30 seconds until melted. Set aside. 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. Season chicken on both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.

2 Start the Chicken
Lightly brush butter onto both sides of each chicken. Press into breadcrumb mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly covered, and place on one half of prepared baking sheet. Spray tops of chicken evenly with cooking spray. Roast in hot oven for 7 minutes.
-
3 Add the Asparagus
After chicken has roasted for 5 minutes, carefully remove from oven. On the other half of the baking sheet, add asparagus and toss with 2 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Return to oven and roast until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10-13 minutes.

4 Finish the Chicken
Remove pan from oven, and top chicken with marinara and mozzarella. Return to oven and roast 5 more minutes or until cheese is melted.
