Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 large cloves garlic, pressed
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 (12 ounce) container grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  • Whisk together olive oil, garlic, and salt in a large bowl. Place tomatoes in a medium bowl; mix in 2 tablespoons of the garlic oil mixture. Mix in oregano and crushed red pepper.
  • Place chicken in the bowl with remaining garlic oil; turn to coat.
  • Place 1 cup Parmesan cheese in a pie plate. Dip one side of each chicken breast into Parmesan to coat, then place chicken breasts, cheese-side up, on one half of a large rimmed baking sheet. Scatter tomatoes on the other half of the baking sheet.
  • Place in the preheated oven and roast until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and top chicken with mozzarella slices. Return to the oven and roast until cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer chicken and tomatoes to 4 plates and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
