Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
For the tomato topping:
- 2 roma tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic
- 4 leaves fresh basil
- 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
- 1/2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1/8 tsp kosher salt
- 1/8 tsp. black pepper
For the chicken:
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 4 thinly sliced chicken breasts
- 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
Instructions
- For the tomato topping: chop the tomatoes into 1/4-inch dice. Add to a medium sized bowl. Mince garlic and add to tomatoes. Stack basil leaves on top of each other then roll lengthwise (to look like a cigar). Thinly slice across to create ribbons of basil. Add to tomatoes and garlic. Drizzle in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle in kosher salt and pepper. Toss gently and set aside.
- For the chicken: heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Season the chicken evenly with kosher salt and pepper. Add olive oil to the skillet and add chicken. Sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Top each piece of chicken with 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella and allow to melt. Remove chicken from skillet and top generously with the tomato topping.
