- 2.12 lb chicken tenderloins
- 1 lb asparagus
- 8 oz cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp kosher salt

Make vinaigrette by whisking together the balsamic vinegar, 2 tbsp of extra-virgin olive oil, honey, mustard, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Set to the side.
Heat a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat. Add chicken, then season with salt and pepper as desired. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side with the lid on, until it begins to turn golden. Remove from pan and set aside. Reduce height to medium.
While the chicken is cooking, cut asparagus into 2-3 inch pieces and halve the cherry tomatoes.
Add asparagus and cherry tomatoes to the pan and cook for 5 minutes with the lid on.
Move asparagus and cherry tomatoes to one half of the pan and then return the chicken to the other half. Pour in the vinaigrette and cook for 5 minutes with the lid on.
Remove and serve or place in 3.4 cup meal prep containers.
