Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 slices of mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Toothpicks for securing rollups

Instructions:

Turn on your oven and heat it up to 375F 190C

Put two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper between each chicken breast

As you slowly pound the chicken until it's about 1/4 inch thick, use a meat mallet or rolling pin

On both sides of each chicken breast, sprinkle salt and pepper

On each chicken breast, put a slice of mozzarella cheese, a few cherry tomato halves, and a few fresh basil leaves

Use toothpicks to hold the roll together as you tightly roll up each chicken breast

Put the olive oil in a pan and heat it over medium-high heat

Start by adding the chicken rollups

Cook them for two to three minutes on each side until they turn golden brown

Add the chicken rollups that have been seared to a baking dish

Drizzle with balsamic vinegar

Bake in a preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbling

Take the toothpicks out before serving

If you want, you can add more basil leaves to the top of your hot Caprese Chicken Rollups before serving

Have fun!
