Instructions

Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with non stick foil or parchment paper. Place the chicken on the sheet and set aside.
Mix the lime juice, miso, honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, chili garlic sauce, half of parsley ( or cilantro), and pepper. Pour 3/4 of the miso honey mixture over chicken.
Cover with foil and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked. Take off the foil, put the asparagus around the chicken. Pour the rest of the miso honey mix over the asparagus, and season with salt and pepper.
Put it back in the oven to grill or broil until the chicken is golden and asparagus spears are tender when pierced by a fork at the thickest part, about 2-3 minutes.
Top with lime slices and sprinkle with the remaining parsley ( or cilantro).
Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Allow it to cool to room temperature. Then, place any leftover portions in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, you can also freeze the dish by placing it in a freezer-safe container. Just keep in mind that the texture of the asparagus may change slightly after freezing and reheating.
