Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 chicken breast
  • 6 tomato Campari
  • 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese sliced or shredded
  • cup basil fresh leaves
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons oregano dried
  • 1 teaspoon basil dried
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • Balsamic reduction optional, drizzle

Instructions

  1. Slice each chicken breast in half, making 6 pieces in total.  Using a meat tenderizer, slightly flatten them out, making sure they are level and even.
  2. Sprinkle both sides with the garlic salt, pepper, dried basil and dried oregano.
  3. Heat a large oven-safe skillet to medium.  Add in the olive oil and the chicken.  Sauté for a few minutes on both sides until they are cooked through.
  4. Add the mozzarella cheese over the top of each piece of chicken.
  5. Place the skillet under the broiler for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese has melted, then remove from the oven.
  6. Add slices of the tomatoes over the top, with fresh basil leaves alternating between each slice.
  7. Top with a drizzle of the (optional) balsamic reduction. I also like to add some flaked sea salt, oregano and ground black pepper over the top right before serving.
