Ingredients

  • 3 large chicken breasts, cut in half width-wise (about 2 pounds chicken)*
  • 1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes (I used no salt added)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Gourmet Garden lightly dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon Gourmet Garden lightly dried chives
  • 1 teaspoon Gourmet Garden lightly dried basil
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • ¾ cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Place the chicken in a large skillet and top with the undrained diced tomatoes. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook, turning once, for about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley, chives, and basil, turn the chicken again and cook for 5 more minutes. Spoon some of the tomatoes on top of the chicken pieces, then sprinkle each breast with mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and cook for a few more minutes until the cheese is melted.

Notes

The chicken breast will be easy to slice width-wise if they are partially frozen. Finish defrosting in the refrigerator (if sliced the morning ahead) or microwave.
