Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  2. 2

    Add Onions and Tomatoes

    Slice the onion and fresh tomatoes. Once the chicken is seared, add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes, then add the tomatoes. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.

  3. 3

    Layer the Cheese

    Place slices of fresh mozzarella cheese over the chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from oven, drizzle with balsamic glaze, and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve hot.
