30-Minute Caprese Chicken | High-Protein, Low-Carb Italian Dinner

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Sear for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Add the cherry tomatoes and balsamic vinegar to the skillet, stirring to combine.

Top each chicken breast with fresh mozzarella balls and basil leaves.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.

Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
