If I am short on time but have some thawed chicken laying in the fridge I usually do this recipe which can be cooked in 25-30 minutes.

olive oil
asparagus
cherry tomatoes
rosemary
chicken breast

Step 1:In a separate bowl mix cut tomatoes, asparagus with the olive oil and rosemary, salt and pepper to taste.

Step 2: Place in either a class baking dish OR make a little boat out of tin foil (easier clean up). Put mixed veggies on bottom and then lay your chicken breast on top.

Step 3: You can also add some white whine before you cook. Cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes at 350.

Done. Drizzle some balsamic vinaigrette on your chicken if you like, it makes it taste great.

Feel free to experiment also, if you are not a fan of asparagus or tomatoes you can easily sub in broccoli or some other greens

I like your recipe, simple and healthy. I would add garlic and a little chilli for extra flavor. I have cooked a similar meal in a pocket of greaseproof paper in the oven with a splash of wine to create a delicious sauce. 'En papillot' is the French term.

I have not made chicken with tomatoes. I may have to try this recipe. I love baked chicken as it is more healthy than fried. I often bake mine with coconut milk.
