To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

- 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil, for cooking

To begin, preheat your oven to 375°F. Then, using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into each chicken breast. Be sure not to cut all the way through the chicken. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Next, stuff each chicken breast with slices of mozzarella cheese, tomato, and chopped basil leaves. Use toothpicks to secure the chicken breasts closed.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the stuffed chicken breasts and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional chopped basil leaves, if desired.
