Ingredients
Scale
- 6 Tyson Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 1 lemon
- salt, pepper, garlic & onion powder
- 2/3 C balsamic vinegar
- 1 C fresh basil leaves, chopped finely
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1/3 C extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 2 large tomatoes, sliced
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees and spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray. Lay the chicken breasts smooth side down on the pan and squeeze half the lemon over the top, then sprinkle on a good amount of the salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder. Flip the chicken over and repeat on the other side. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until the juices run clear. The time will depend on the size of your chicken breasts.
- While the chicken is baking, place the balsamic vinegar in a small skillet and bring it to a boil over medium high heat and allow it to reduce to a syrup like consistency, which takes about 5-8 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the chopped basil, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper then set aside.
- Once the chicken is baked, remove from the oven and layer on slices of tomato topped with slices of mozzarella cheese. Return to the oven for a couple minutes until the cheese melts.
- To serve, top each chicken breast with the basil mixture and then drizzle the reduced balsamic vinegar over the top.
Notes
*Chicken must be cooked to an internal temperature of 170 degrees for boneless products and 180 degrees for bone in chicken products.
