Tomato Mozza Chicken
This fresh Tomato Mozza Chicken is a great way to use those tomatoes that are going to go bad and create a unique dinner recipe that everyone in the house is sure to love. I use the tomatoes to create a Pico de Gallo (if Basil is your jam then you could do a bruschetta type tomato dish instead) that I layer on top of the chicken with Mozza Cheese before I bake it and it is a favorite in our house!
Serving Size: 2
Ingredients
2 Chicken Breast
1 Cup Mozza/Cheddar Cheese
4 Roma Tomatoes, chopped
1/2 Cup White Onion, chopped
1/4 Cup Red Onion, chopped (or 1 Jalapeno, chopped)
3-4 Cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Tsp. Lime Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 375F degrees. While the oven is preheating, combine tomatoes, onion, garlic, and the lime juice in a medium bowl. Add salt and pepper and mix well. In a glass baking pan, spray cooking spray to avoid sticking. Lay chicken breast flat in pan and sprinkle with more salt and pepper.
Layer the pico de gallo heavily on top of the chicken and then evenly sprinkle the mozza cheese on top of that. Bake in oven for 35-45 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. Broil for 1 minute prior to moving from the oven if you want to give the cheese a little extra browning. Remove from baking dish and serve with rice or our Pico de Gallo Salad!
