For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the chicken in a lemon-herb vinaigrette for at least 30 minutes before baking. If you don't have penne pasta, other short pasta shapes like farfalle or rotini work well. To prevent the asparagus from becoming overcooked, blanch it in boiling water for 2 minutes before adding it to the skillet. Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese is highly recommended for the best flavor.
