Ingredients

For the Chicken:

4 large chicken breasts (about 2 lbs
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
2 tsp Italian seasoning

2 garlic cloves, minced
4 slices mozzarella cheese
1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)

2½ tbsp fresh basil, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
½ tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Prepare the Bruschetta Topping:

In a bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Prepare the Chicken:

Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness.
