INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast, Skinless, Boneless
1 ounce Fresh Mozzarella Cheese (Low Moisture Part-Skim)
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved
1 handful Fresh Basil
2 teaspoons Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat dry the chicken breast and season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Lightly coat the chicken with the olive oil. Then sprinkle the whole wheat breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the chicken to create a crispy layer.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Arrange them around the chicken on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and immediately top with slices or shreds of the mozzarella cheese.
Return the dish to the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes, until the cheese has melted but not browned.
Garnish with fresh basil on top before serving.
