Baked Cheesy chicken uses only one pan and a handful of ingredients for a juicy, flavorful chicken recipe. It's a great weeknight meal, or fancy up this cheesy baked chicken for a dinner party.

2 tbsp olive oil 2 6-oz raw chicken breasts 1/8 tsp sea salt 1/8 tsp pepper ¼ tsp garlic powder ½ tsp Italian seasoning 1 tsp basil 2 small roma tomatoes, or 1/2 can of canned tomatoes 4 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced
Preheat oven to 400. Mix your spices, and top the chicken with ½ the spice mixture.
Coat your baking pan (I used a pyrex with olive oil) and place chicken breasts on top.
Then top with sliced roma tomatoes, cheese, and the other half of the spice mixture.
Bake for 35-40 min or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
