Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

5 chicken breasts
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic (finely minced)
1 pound fresh cherry tomatoes (chopped)
3 cloves garlic (finely minced)
2 teaspoons fresh basil ((or used 1 teaspoon dried basil, if desired))
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
a pinch or two of salt and pepper
balsamic glaze or balsamic vinegar, and grated parmesan cheese for serving (optional)

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Add the chicken breasts to a bowl along with the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic. Set aside for a few minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix the chopped tomatoes, garlic, basil, parmesan and salt and pepper together until everything is combined.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add a small drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken pieces (don't add all the liquid yet!) once the skillet and the oil is hot and brown the chicken pieces on both sides for about 4-5 minutes per side.
Once the chicken has browned, pour in the leftover marinade over the chicken and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken breasts reach an internal temperature of 74 degrees Celsius (165 Fahrenheit).
Remove the chicken from the oven and top with the cherry tomato mixture, along with a drizzle of balsamic glaze or balsamic vinegar, and some more grated parmesan cheese.
