Categories     BBQ & Grilled Chicken

Time 4h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
4 fresh basil leaves, minced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 slices mozzarella cheese
¼ cup basil pesto

Steps:

  • Gently pound chicken breasts into even thickness using the smooth side of a meat mallet, about 1/2 inch thick. Place chicken into a resealable plastic bag.
  • Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt in a small bowl. Pour over chicken, coat evenly, and marinate for 4 to 8 hours.
  • Combine cherry tomatoes, basil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat; lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and grill with the lid closed for 4 minutes. Flip chicken and grill an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Top each breast with a slice of mozzarella cheese and 1 tablespoon of pesto, then top with cherry tomatoes. Close lid on grill and continue grilling until cheese is melted and chicken is no longer pink inside, about 3 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Using a spatula, carefully remove chicken to a serving platter.
