Ingredients
  • 4 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon, divided
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning or dried oregano
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness
  • 3 slicing tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp. freshly chopped basil
  • 4 slices mozzarella
  • Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, combine oil, half the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and Italian seasoning (or oregano) and whisk to combine. Transfer to a large re-sealable bag along with chicken; seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Heat grill over medium-high then add chicken, discarding excess marinade. Grill until charred and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
  3. Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, garlic, basil, and remaining lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. While chicken is still on grill, top each breast with 1 slice mozzarella and cover until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Top chicken with tomato mixture.
  4. Garnish with Parmesan and serve.
