Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Lightly coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 3 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more. Remove once the chicken is opaque in the center. Wipe the skillet clean. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Lay 2 bread slices out. Top one slice with the cooked chicken, mozzarella, tomato, and basil leaves. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the fillings and top with the second slice of bread. Brush the outside of the sandwich with the olive oil.
Set the skillet over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and place a heavy pan on top to press it. Cook for 4 minutes, flip, and cook for 4 minutes more until the bread is deep golden and the cheese is soft.
