• 0.25 cup basil leaves
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Layer mozzarella, tomatoes and basil onto one side of the chicken breast. 4. Adding as much (or as little) as desired. Season with additional salt and pepper. Fold the other side of the chicken over top, and secure with cooking twine or toothpicks so the chicken doesn't come unfolded. 5.

After 20 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven and if is not fully cooked, place back in the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes. 6.
