Balsamic Glazed Chicken & Asparagus

Balsamic Glazed Chicken & Asparagus at The Little Shop of Olive Oils

This is one of those dinners that looks like you planned ahead, even when you didn’t. Simple ingredients, one pan, and big flavor — exactly how I like to cook.

Using Milanese Gremolata Olive Oil brings a fresh blend of garlic, parsley, and citrus to the dish, which pairs beautifully with the richness of balsamic glaze. The oil gives the chicken and vegetables a bright, savory base before the balsamic and honey come in to do their thing.

The asparagus stays crisp, the tomatoes soften just enough, and everything gets coated in that glossy balsamic finish. It’s balanced, flavorful, and comes together quickly — perfect for weeknights, but nice enough to serve when company shows up.

This is one of those recipes that reminds you how good simple food can be when you start with great ingredients.
