BAKED CHICKEN WITH CRISPY PARMESAN AND TOMATOES
Think of this as an easy version of chicken Parmesan, tender chicken, tangy tomatoes and crispy bits of Parmesan. Here, there's no pounding, breading or frying required. The bath of garlicky tomatoes gently cooks the chicken, keeping it juicy, while the dusting of Parmesan returns some richness lost in choosing boneless and skinless breasts. Seek out chicken breasts on the larger side to give the Parmesan a chance to properly brown and crisp up without overcooking.

- Lightly grease a baking pan or cookie sheet with olive oil.
- Thickly slice the tomatoes and place them in a single layer on the greased pan.

- Bake for 15 minutes (top rack) until the tops are golden brown and bubbling.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your baked tomatoes are bursting with flavor.
- Use a variety of tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes all have different flavors and textures that can add interest to your dish.
- Season the tomatoes well. Salt, pepper, and garlic are a good starting point, but you can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Roast the tomatoes at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the tomatoes and give them a delicious crispy skin.
- Serve the tomatoes immediately. Baked tomatoes are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, when they are still hot and juicy.
