Ingredients
  • Sea salt
  • Black pepper
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp parsley
  • 8 4 oz chicken breast fillets
  • Olive oil drizzle
  • 8 thin mozzarella slices fresh or packaged, not deli
  • 8 thin tomato slices
  • Balsamic drizzle or ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
Instructions
  1. Season chicken fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Mix together garlic powder and parsley and season chicken. Heat your grill pan on the stove on medium and add a drizzle of olive oil. Grill fillets for 2 minutes per side. You can use a drizzle of oil for each batch, but these really don’t need more than that.
  2. When all your fillets are grilled, lay them out on a baking sheet. Add the sliced mozzarella on each fillet. On top of that add your sliced tomato. Broil on high for 6 minutes. When it comes out, drizzle on top with olive oil & balsamic glaze. Top it all off with a fresh basil leaf!
  3. To make the balsamic glaze: pour ¼ cup of balsamic into a pan heated on high and boil for 8 minutes. It will reduce by more than half and become very sticky & stringy. Take a fork or spoon to drizzle all over the chicken.
