Perfectly seasoned chicken layered with fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil, baked in the oven and topped with balsamic glaze. A delicious option for lunch the next day!
1: Start off by slicing your tomatoes, mozzarella and chopping the basil.
2: Then, thinly slice your chicken breasts.
3: Mix salt, pepper and Italian seasonings together. Rub seasonings and grated garlic onto the chicken. Drizzle the chicken with olive oil to lightly coat, and ensure the seasonings stick.
4: Heat up your braiser on medium, drizzle olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan, and add in the butter.
5: Sear the chicken on each side for 3-5 minutes, until a golden crust develops, and the chicken is cooked through. Once cooked, remove to a baking dish, and continue cooking the remainder of the chicken.
6: Once all the chicken is browned, top with sliced mozzarella, then a tomato.
7: Bake at 350 for 10-20 minutes, until cheese is just starting to melt. Broil for the last few minutes until pan juices are bubbling.
8: Remove from oven, top with fresh basil, and drizzle with the balsamic glaze!
