Baked chicken breast with tomato, basil, and mozzarella sauce

Ingredients

Skin-On Chicken Breasts - 1 piece
Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
Wheat Flour - 7.1 oz
Shallot - 1 head
Garlic - 1 clove
Marinated cherries - 6 pieces
Fresh basil leaves - to taste
Parmesan Cheese - 3.5 oz
Melted Cheese - 7.1 oz
Olive Oil - to taste
Salt - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Crack the eggs and lightly beat them. Add salt to the flour. Cut the chicken breast lengthwise to create a thin 'butterfly'. Dredge the breast in flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip it in the egg and again in the flour. In a preheated skillet, pour in olive oil and place the breast. Fry on both sides until golden brown.

Step 2

For the sauce, cut the cherry tomatoes in half, chop the shallot, garlic, and basil leaves. Sauté in olive oil in a skillet for 3 minutes.

Step 3

Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet. Top with the sauce. Slice the mozzarella into thin pieces and grate the parmesan. Layer the mozzarella on top of the sauce and sprinkle with parmesan. Place in a preheated oven at 356°F and bake for 8 minutes. Serve with a side dish.
