Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.

Cut thick chicken breasts in half and leave thinner ones whole, then place them on the sheet pan.

Season the chicken with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.

Add 1/2 stick of butter over the chicken and drizzle some over the asparagus.

Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and check the chicken and asparagus.

Add a slice of provolone cheese on each piece of chicken.

Top each piece of chicken with a slice of tomato.

Sprinkle shredded parmesan cheese on top of the tomato slices.

Add a little more Italian seasoning for extra flavor and color.

Return the sheet pan to the oven and bake for an additional 3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the tomato is heated through.

Remove from the oven and serve.
