Instructions

1. 1Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into even pieces about 1 inch thick. Halve the baby potatoes lengthwise. Trim the asparagus and cut into 3-inch pieces. Zest the lemon and juice it into a small bowl.
2. 2Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Once the oil shimmers, add the chicken in a single layer and cook 6–8 minutes until golden brown on the first side, then flip and cook another 5–7 minutes until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer to a plate.
3. 3Add the potatoes to the same skillet with 1 tablespoon olive oil, fresh rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook 12–15 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring every 3–4 minutes, until the potatoes are golden and tender when pierced with a fork.
4. 4Push the potatoes to the sides of the skillet and add the asparagus to the center with the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss everything gently to combine. Cook 4–6 minutes over medium heat until the asparagus is tender-crisp and the chicken is heated through.
5. 5Divide the chicken, potatoes, and asparagus evenly into 4 airtight containers while hot, distributing the pan juices among them.
6. 6Allow to cool to room temperature before sealing the containers. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through.
