Preheat the oven to broil on high.

Slice off the ends of the asparagus, rinse, and pat dry.

Cut the red potatoes into quarters (or eighths if larger).

In a medium bowl or on the sheet pan, toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons parmesan, 1 minced garlic clove, 0.5 teaspoon cracked pepper, salt to taste, and parsley.

Spread the potatoes evenly on the sheet pan and broil for 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned.

While the potatoes are cooking, spread 1 tablespoon olive oil on both sides of the flank steak and season with salt as desired.

Minced 2 garlic cloves and sprinkle 2 tablespoons parmesan onto the steak.

When the potatoes are ready, push them to the side and place the steak next to them.

Add the asparagus and drizzle with about 0.5 tablespoon olive oil, the remaining parmesan, 1 minced garlic clove, and season with sea salt and pepper to taste.

Place the pan back into the oven and broil each side of the steak for 4-6 minutes.

Remove the pan from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

For the crispy parmesan baked chicken, preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a baking sheet.

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.

Dip the chicken into the egg mixture and allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

In another bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.

Dredge the egg-coated chicken in the breadcrumb mixture and press to coat evenly.

Place the chicken onto the baking sheet and arrange the quartered baby potatoes around the chicken in a single layer.

Mix together the melted butter, 2 teaspoons garlic, and salt to taste, then pour half over the potatoes.

Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.

Remove the baking tray from the oven and carefully flip each chicken breast.

Move the potatoes to one side and place the green beans around the chicken on the other side of the baking sheet.

Pour the remaining garlic butter over the green beans and return to the oven to broil or grill on medium-high heat until the chicken is golden and crisp and the potatoes are cooked through.

For the shrimp fajitas, slice the tri-colored peppers and onion.

Add the peppers and onions to a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with black pepper.

Toss together, then add the shrimp and separate as much as possible on the baking sheet.

Sprinkle fajita seasoning mix over everything and toss together.

Roast at 375 degrees for about 15-20 minutes, keeping an eye on everything.
