INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 Tbsp Basil Pesto
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
1 tsp Dried Italian Herbs
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season the chicken breast on both sides with a pinch of salt, pepper, and dried Italian herbs.
Spread 1 tablespoon of basil pesto evenly over the top of the chicken breast to form a flavorful crust.
Place the pesto-coated chicken breast on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Scatter the tomatoes around the chicken on the tray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the tomatoes are softened and slightly charred.
Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
