Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

1 cup fresh basil leaves

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    In a large baking dish, lay the chicken breasts and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning, making sure to coat the chicken evenly.

      Place the sliced mozzarella cheese on top of each chicken breast.

        Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes around and on top of the chicken.

          Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

            Remove the chicken from the oven and sprinkle fresh basil leaves over each piece.

              Drizzle with balsamic glaze just before serving, ensuring each piece is well-coated.

                Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld.
