Ingredients
4
4 servings
- •4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- •1 cup Italian salad dressing
- •1 tablespoon Italian herb seasoning
- •1 tablespoon chicken seasoning (such as Grill Mates® Montreal Chicken Seasoning)
- •2 tablespoons canola oil
- •4 (1/2 inch thick) slices fresh mozzarella cheese
- •4 (1/2 inch thick) slices tomato
- •4 large fresh basil leaves
- •1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Place chicken breasts, Italian salad dressing, Italian herb seasoning, and chicken seasoning into a resealable plastic bag, knead bag several times to coat chicken with marinade, and squeeze air from the bag. Seal and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
- Pour canola oil into a large cast iron or ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the oil until a small droplet of water pops in the oil. Remove chicken breasts from marinade and discard used marinade. Place chicken breasts into hot oil, fry for 2 minutes, and flip chicken.
- Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until chicken is no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 12 minutes. Top each chicken breast with a slice of mozzarella cheese and a tomato slice.
- Return to oven and bake until cheese has melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer chicken breasts to a serving platter and top each with a basil leaf and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
