Baked Chicken Caprese

This Baked Chicken Caprese is an easy to make one pan meal that has pesto covered chicken and mozzarella cheese, gets baked and then topped with tomato slices, chopped basil and balsamic glaze. So EASY, so GOOD!

Ingredients
4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup fresh pesto
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced
8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
2 tbsp balsamic glaze/syrup
fresh basil for garnish


Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Place chicken breasts in a rectangle 9x12" casserole dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray or olive oil.
Sprinkle the chicken with kosher salt and black pepper.
Divide and spread pesto evenly over chicken breasts.
Add 2-3 slices of fresh Mozzarella cheese on top of each chicken breast.
Bake at 400°F for 25 minutes, depending on the thickness of your breasts. (See Note 1)

Allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing or serving. When serving, top each chicken breast with slices of Roma tomatoes and fresh chopped basil. Drizzle balsamic glaze on top of each. Serve on its own, over pasta of choice, or roasted potatoes.

Note
1. If chicken breasts are too thick, slice in half horizontally and pound between sheets of plastic wrap for even thickness. For best results, use an instant read thermometer, the chicken is cooked when it reaches internal temperature of 165°F.
