Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place 6 thin slices of chicken on greased baking sheet (if thick, cut in half lengthwise). Tip: Line with tin foil for an easy clean-up!
Sprinkle chicken with 1 tbsp Italian seasoning, salt & pepper to taste.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until done (oven times will vary).
Place 1 mozzarella slice and 1 tomato slice on each piece of chicken, then bake for another 5 minutes or until mozzarella is melted.
Take out of oven, drizzle with balsamic reduction, then top with fresh basil leaves. Place a toothpick through tomato, mozzarella & chicken to hold in place. Enjoy the Baked Caprese Chicken!
