Instructions

Preheat oven to 400℉. Spray a baking dish, I used a 9x13 inch, with cooking spray and set aside.
Snap the end pieces off the asparagus and place them in the baking dish. Add tomato halves too. I placed the asparagus at one end and tomatoes at the other end. Season generously with salt and pepper and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over asparagus and tomatoes. Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes or until asparagus softens a bit and begins to get brown.
In the meantime add the balsamic vinegar to a small sauce pan and cook over medium heat for about 15 to 20 minutes or until it reduces and starts to thicken.
Drizzle some of the balsamic reduction over the roasted asparagus and tomatoes and serve warm.

Notes

Choose Fresh Vegetables: Opt for firm, bright green asparagus and ripe cherry tomatoes to ensure the best flavor and texture.
Evenly Spread Ingredients: Arrange the asparagus and tomatoes in a single layer on the baking dish to ensure they roast evenly and caramelize nicely.
Watch the Balsamic Reduction: Keep an eye on the balsamic vinegar as it reduces to prevent it from burning. It should thicken to a syrupy consistency for the perfect drizzle.
