Ingredients




4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 can diced tomatoes
1 small onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
2 Tablespoons
2 teaspoons salt
1 and 1/2 teaspoons pepper

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 375F degrees. 2 If the chicken breast are not equal in thickness, pound them down slightly. Sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. 3 In a large oven-safe pan or skillet, heat the olive oil, onion and garlic over medium heat for a few minutes until the onions are translucent. 4 Add the chicken and cook for 6 minutes total, 3 minutes per side. You want the chicken browned on the outside. The chicken will not be cooked through yet. 5 Pour in the diced tomatoes and slightly cover the chicken. Place the pan into the oven for 15-20 minutes (depends on thickness) or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature 165F degrees. 6 Remove the chicken from the oven and add the basil. Stir slightly. 7 Serve immediately. Leftovers stay fresh in an air-tight container for up to 3 days.
