Step 2Meanwhile in a small bowl combine the olive oil, marjoram, and black pepper. Place the chicken in a casserole dish and brush the oil mixture over both sides.

Step 3Once the balsamic reduction cools down pour it into the casserole dish around the chicken. Let the chicken marinate for 30 minutes flipping halfway through the marinating time. Add the tomatoes, asparagus, and zucchini

Step 4Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Sprinkle with the provolone and mozzarella. Place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and lightly browned.
