INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce
2 ounces Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
4 leaves Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking dish. Brush both sides with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper if desired.
Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, gently warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon the zesty marinara sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the fresh mozzarella cheese over the sauced chicken.
Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with torn fresh basil leaves before serving.
