Paleo Caprese Chicken




Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
himalayan salt
dried oregano
Fresh ground pepper (optional)
1 pint grape tomatoes, quartered
3-4 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 -1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
4-6 pieces "cheese" (I often use this recipe)
2 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped

Directions:
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt, oregano, and pepper if desired. Cook on both sides until browned and cooked through. (about 6-8 minutes on each side) Transfer cooked chicken to a plate.

Add quartered grape tomatoes and cook until softened and wilted. Drain off some of the liquid and then add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add balsamic vinegar and cook until slightly thickened. Return chicken to skillet and place a slice of "cheese" on each piece of chicken and cover with a lid until cheese melts. Spoon some tomatoes on to each piece of chicken and then top with fresh basil. Serve with steamed spiralized zucchini or steamed rutabaga noodles cut with a Kitchen Aid veggie sheet cutter and then sliced into long thin strands.
