Instructions
  1. 1. Pat the chicken dry and place it in a bowl or shallow dish.
  2. 2. Coat the chicken with the New Jersey Tomato Basil Infused Olive Oil Blend, extra virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
  3. 3. Let the chicken sit for 10 minutes while you heat the grill or grill pan to medium-high.
  4. 4. Grill the chicken for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and nicely marked.
  5. 5. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. 6. Slice the chicken, then arrange it on a serving platter with the tomato slices and mozzarella.
  7. 7. Tuck fresh basil leaves around the platter and drizzle everything with balsamic glaze and lemon juice.
  8. 8. Finish with an extra light drizzle of New Jersey Tomato Basil Infused Olive Oil Blend and serve right away.

Notes

The blend is used both in the seasoning and as a finishing drizzle, which helps the tomato-basil flavor carry through the whole dish. If your tomatoes are especially juicy, slice them just before serving so the platter stays neat.
