Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Sauté the chicken: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then cook in the skillet for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Assemble in a baking dish: Place the chicken in a baking dish. Top each piece with sliced mozzarella and halved cherry tomatoes.
Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the top and scatter fresh basil leaves around.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.
Serve warm and enjoy your Caprese Chicken!

Notes

For best results, use fresh mozzarella and basil. Let the chicken develop a golden crust for added flavor.
