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!
