Ingredients
Chicken
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 4 thin-cut chicken breasts
Topping
- 2 roma tomatoes cut into thick slices
- 3 Tablespoons fresh basil cut in thin strips
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 4 ounces thick slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
- balsamic glaze optional for garnish
- sliced basil optional for garnish
Instructions
- Combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a mixing bowl or a zip top bag. Add the chicken so it’s evenly coated. Let the chicken marinade for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
- Remove the chicken from the fridge to have it not be so cold when going on the grill while the grill heats up.
- Preheat the grill to medium heat while you make the tomatoes.
- In a mixing bowl, add the Roma tomatoes, basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Gently toss to combine and let sit while you grill the chicken.
- Place the chicken on the grill, close the lid and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side. It’s done when the chicken reaches 165 F.
- Remove to a serving plate and top with slices of mozzarella cheese, and 1-2 slices of tomatoes. Sprinkle with more basil slices and drizzle with balsamic glaze, if desired.
- Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
