TOMATO BASIL ROASTED CHICKEN

I only had a few ingredients in my fridge, and this recipe came to mind. However, it turned out pretty awesome and very Italian. I found that the cheese and tomatoes on top keep the meat very tender and moist. And the roasted tomatoes, mmmmm. Also, I suggest serving it with some roasted cauliflower.
