How to make it
1
Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Strip thyme leaves from stems; mince leaves until you have 1½ tsp (3 tsp for 4 servings). Trim woody ends from asparagus. Zest and quarter lemon.
2
Finely chop pecans or crush in bag with a heavy-bottomed pan or rolling pin.Place 2 TBSP butter (3 TBSP for 4 servings) in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until melted, 45 seconds.Stir in pecans, panko, and 1 tsp chopped thyme (2 tsp for 4). Season with salt and pepper.
3
Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Season all over with ¾ tsp garlic powder (1½ tsp for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. (You’ll use the rest of the garlic powder later.) Place chicken on one side of a baking sheet. Spread top of each with 1 tsp honey Dijon dressing (save the rest for serving). Mound with pecan mixture, pressing firmly to adhere (no need to coat the undersides).
4
Roast chicken on top rack for 12 minutes (chicken will finish cooking in the next step).Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss asparagus with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. (You’ll roast the asparagus in the next step.)
5
Meanwhile, remove biscuits from package. Separate biscuits; place at least 2 inches apart on a second lightly oiled baking sheet. (For 4, carefully add biscuits to sheet with chicken.)Once chicken has roasted 12 minutes, carefully spread asparagus on opposite side of sheet from chicken and add sheet with biscuits to middle rack. (For 4 servings, add asparagus to a second sheet; roast chicken on top rack and asparagus on middle rack.) Bake until biscuits and chicken are golden brown and cooked through and asparagus is tender, 8-11 minutes. TIP: If chicken is done before asparagus, remove from sheet and continue roasting asparagus.
6
Meanwhile, place 2 TBSP butter (3 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until just softened, 10-15 seconds.Stir in remaining garlic powder and remaining chopped thyme; season with salt and pepper.
7
Carefully toss roasted asparagus with lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice. Split biscuits and spread with garlic thyme butter.Divide asparagus, chicken, and biscuits between plates. Drizzle chicken with remaining honey Dijon dressing. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my meal delivery spending through three summers. The pattern’s embarrassing: June hits, I promise myself I’ll meal prep and eat clean, then by July I’m ordering Chipotle at 9 PM because it’s 95 degrees and I can’t face turning on the stove. August?

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I went vegan for 90 days while working 60-hour weeks. Not because I’m some wellness influencer with a meal prep Sunday ritual. because I wanted to see if it was actually possible without turning into the person who brings sad lettuce to every work lunch.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent last summer testing every meal delivery service that promised to keep me eating clean while Nashville hit 95 degrees by 10 AM.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my mom’s Uber Eats spending for a month. $387. That number made me physically uncomfortable.
