Time 20m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 chicken breasts
2 roma tomatoes
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or goat cheese)
1/2 cup balsamic syrup
1/2 cup basil

Steps:

  • Start by pounding your chicken breasts thin between two pieces of plastic wrap. Trim off any fat.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high.
  • Salt and pepper chicken breasts on both sides and place in hot skillet. Cook for about 4 minutes per side depending on how thick they are. You want to get some good browning on each side.
  • When chicken is cooked through drizzle with the balsamic syrup, top with the mozzarella and tomato. Turn off heat, put lid on and let the cheese melt for a minute of two.
  • Top with shredded Basil.
  • Serve with more balsamic syrup if desired.

CAPRESE CHICKEN



Caprese Chicken image

I love caprese salad and I'm always trying to find new ways to make chicken dishes and eat a bit healthier. Plus the basil in my garden is growing out of control! Everyone who's made it raves about it and makes it again and again!

Time 4h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup Italian salad dressing
1 tablespoon Italian herb seasoning
1 tablespoon chicken seasoning (such as Grill Mates® Montreal Chicken Seasoning)
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 (1/2 inch thick) slices fresh mozzarella cheese
4 (1/2 inch thick) slices tomato
4 large fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts, Italian salad dressing, Italian herb seasoning, and chicken seasoning into a resealable plastic bag, knead bag several times to coat chicken with marinade, and squeeze air from the bag. Seal and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  • Pour canola oil into a large cast-iron or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the oil until a small droplet of water pops in the oil. Remove chicken breasts from marinade and discard used marinade. Place chicken breasts into hot oil, fry for 2 minutes, and flip chicken.
  • Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 12 minutes. Top each chicken breast with a slice of mozzarella cheese and a tomato slice.
  • Return to oven and bake until cheese has melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer chicken breasts to a serving platter and top each with a basil leaf and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
