INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 medium Tomato
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Lightly pat dry the chicken breast and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Sear the chicken breast for 2-3 minutes on each side until it develops a golden crust.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake the chicken for 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, slice the tomato into thick rounds.
Once the chicken is nearly done, remove it from the oven and top it evenly with the mozzarella cheese and tomato slices.
Return the skillet to the oven for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the tomatoes are slightly roasted.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
