Caprese Chicken with Balsamic Reduction

I know, I know.  I just posted a Caprese dish last week.  You’re probably thinking… “Change it up a bit Krista!” 🙂

But guess in my defense, I’m having surgery this morning to get my wisdom teeth removed {finally} and I needed a recipe to post for you in a snap. 🙂 This was a recipe I had been saving for a while now.  I was waiting for the right time to pop another Caprese dish on you.  Lucky you, you get it earlier than I had planned! 🙂

Just keep in mind, while you are making this dish.  I will be sitting at home with bags of frozen peas over my puffy cheeks, “eating” liquids and dreaming of solid foods. I hope I heal fast, I don’t know how long I will be able to stay on a liquid diet.

Anywho, this Caprese Chicken dish topped with a Homemade Balsamic Reduction will definitely be a crowd pleaser.  Not only for you, because it is super easy and fast to make. But because all of the flavors go so well together and compliment each other perfectly. I hope you enjoy it!

How to Make The Best Caprese Chicken

To get started, heat one large skillet to medium high heat. Season both sides of 4 boneless chicken breasts with salt & pepper. Place chicken breasts in skillet and cook each side for 6-7 minutes. {14 minutes total}

Slice 1 Beef Steak Tomato into thick 1/4″ slices.

Next, slice one 4 oz. ball of fresh mozzarella into thick 1/4″ slices and set aside 8 large fresh basil leaves.

To assemble place chicken breast on bottom, then 1 large slice of tomato and two leaves of basil.

Next, add 1 large slice of fresh mozzarella.

Lastly, drizzle a Balsamic Reduction over top the entire dish. {here is a link to my Homemade Balsamic Reduction}

Serve with a side of fresh veggies. YUMMO!
