30 Minute Skillet Chicken Caprese
Ingredients
1 1/2 tsp herbes de provence
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
3 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 thick slices low-fat mozzarella cheese
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup basil leaves, chiffonade
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a small prep bowl, combine herbes de provence, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper.
Season the chicken breasts on both sides.
Set a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and sear on both sides until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
Place skillet into preheated oven and bake until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 20-22 minutes.
Remove from the oven and top the chicken breasts with cheese, return to oven and broil 2-3 minutes or until melty. Remove and top with tomatoes and basil, drizzle with balsamic vinegar and serve immediately.
Yields 3 Servings
