I love trying to find a way to mix veggies into my dishes - because honestly, I get tired of the taste of chicken sometimes! I love basil - fresh basil and fresh tomatoes just make me think of my garden and summertime.... This dish is full of rich flavors but was not a huge expense on my checkbook or my time. And yes, this is 21 Day Fix Approved!!!
What you need:
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil (can be pricey in the store, but is so cheap to grow)
- 5 small chicken breasts
- 3/4 cup cherry tomatoes, slices in quarters
- 2 cloves of minced garlic
- 8oz package of fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- dash of dry basil
- dash of garlic powder
- 1 cup shredded mozerella
What you need to do:
- Preheat oven to 375
- In a large frying pan, add olive oil, garlic and mushrooms.
- Cook mushrooms to desired (I like mine with crispy edges)
- Add in tomatoes, saute on medium for 5 minutes
- Add in chopped basil and saute for 3 minutes
- In a 9x13 baking dish, spray with olive oil spray
- Place uncooked chicken in the dish, evenly spaced without overlapping.
- Sprinkle dry basil and garlic powder on the chicken.
- Place mushroom mixture evenly on top of the chicken.
- Place in oven, uncovered for 20-25 minutes.
- Spread mozeralla on top and place back in the oven until melted. (I put my oven on low broil to brown the cheese a little)
- Enjoy!
