PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • 2

    In a small food processor or blender, combine the basil leaves, pine nuts, olive oil, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. Blend until a smooth pesto forms.

  • 3

    Place the chicken breast on a cutting board and, if desired, gently pound to an even thickness for consistent cooking.

  • 4

    Spread a thin layer of the prepared pesto over the chicken breast. Sprinkle the herb breadcrumbs evenly on top to create a light crust.

  • 5

    Arrange the pesto-coated chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Surround the chicken with cherry tomatoes.

  • 6

    Drizzle the extra olive oil over the tomatoes and a little over the chicken for added moisture and flavor.

  • 7

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F) and the tomatoes are caramelized.
