Instructions

  1. Whisk together all of the ingredients for the balsamic grilled chicken. Put the chicken breasts in a freezer bag and pour the marinade over them. Press the air out of the bag, seal it and massage the marinade into the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates. When the grill is hot place the marinated chicken onto it and grill for 4-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165° F.
  3. During the last couple minutes of grilling, layer 2 slices of tomatoes, 2 basil leaves and 2 slices of mozzarella on top of each chicken breast. When the cheese is melted remove from the grill. Drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
