I have been loving caprese lately and this recipe is perfect for a low carb dinner that is quick to make. If you are trying to incorporate more low carb meals into your daily life than I suggest you give this one a try! I like to make an arugula salad when I make this meal because all of the flavors come together.

But no worries if you are not low carb. You can pair this chicken with pasta, rice, or even on a sandwich. The trick to making this meal even more delicious is to drizzle some balsamic glaze over the chicken and arugula if you decide to make a salad.

Ingredients:

  • 4 chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • salt/pepper to liking
  • 6–8 oz mozerella
  • 2 tomatoes sliced
  • handful fresh basil
  • balsamic glaze drizzle on top

How to Make:

  • Cut chicken in half, lengthwise, if you like a thinner cut. Drizzle olive oil over each piece of chicken, then season on both sides.
  • Cook chicken on each side for about 3–5 minutes.
  • Top each slice of chicken with a slice of tomato and mozzarella.
  • Bake chicken until the mozzarella is melted for about 10 minutes.
  • Top with basil and balsamic.
