How to Make Tomato, Basil & Mozzarella Chicken?

 

Ingredients

• For 2 servings,
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• olive oil, to taste
• salt, to taste
• pepper, to taste
• garlic powder, to taste
• oregano, to taste
• 1 ball fresh mozzarella cheese
• 1 tomato, medium
• 5 leaves fresh basil leaf

• Balsamic glaze
• 1 cup dark balsamic vinegar(240 mL), inexpensive
• ⅓ cup honey(115 g)

Method

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• On a parchment-lined baking sheet, season both sides of the chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until cooked through and juices run clear.
• While the chicken is in the oven, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey in a sauce pot and simmer, stirring occasionally.

NOTE: It should take about 20 minutes for the mixture to reduce.

• Once the glaze has reached your desired thickness, remove it from the heat and set aside.
• Remove the chicken from the oven and top with slices of mozzarella and tomato.
• Broil for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and the tomatoes are slightly charred.
• While the chicken is broiling, you can chiffonade (cut into thin strips) the basil.
• Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the chicken and top with basil.
• Enjoy!
