Instructions

1. 1

   Pat chicken breasts dry and rub with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Heat your grill to medium-high. Oil the grates lightly to prevent sticking.

3. 3

   Place chicken on the hot grill. Cook for 6–7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the surface is golden with grill marks.

4. 4

   During the last 2 minutes of grilling, layer sliced tomatoes and mozzarella on each breast. Close the lid to allow the cheese to soften and slightly melt.

5. 5

   Remove chicken from the grill. Top with fresh basil leaves and drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
