A super easy, super delicious recipe from Cafe Delites
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2¼ lb total)
2 T olive oil
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried basil
1 tsp salt
cracked black pepper, to taste
1½ T minced garlic, (5-6 cloves garlic), divided
2 C grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
¼ red onion, peeled and sliced
¼ C balsamic vinegar
1 T packed brown sugar
¾ C fresh shredded mozzarella cheese
2 T fresh chopped parsley or basil, to garnish
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Place chicken breasts in a baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Season with oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. Rub seasoning all over each breast. Arrange the tomatoes and red onion around the chicken in the dish.
Whisk together the balsamic vinegar, sugar, and remaining garlic. Pour over the chicken breasts, flipping each breast in the sauce to evenly coat.
Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes (depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts), or until no longer pink in the middle. Sprinkle with cheese and broil (or grill) for 4-5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and golden. Garnish with parsley, and serve with rice or pasta drizzled with the pan juices.
