Ingredients
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts pounded to even thickness (1 inch or less)
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (OR ¼ teaspoon each dried basil, dried oregano, and dried thyme)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
4 slices mozzarella cheese
Tomato Basil Topping
3 roma tomatoes diced
salt and pepper to taste
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
Instructions
In a large bowl combine chicken, oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir to combine and coat chicken evenly with the seasonings.
Grill chicken over medium-high heat 6-8 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
While chicken is cooking, prepare the topping. In a medium bowl combine tomatoes, salt and pepper, lemon juice, and basil and stir well.
Once chicken is cooked through, top each chicken breast with a slice of mozzarella cheese and cook for about 1 minute longer until cheese is melty.
Top chicken with tomato basil topping and serve immediately.
Notes
Bruschetta topping can be made in advance and stored in fridge until ready to serve.
