Time 55m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 thawed boneless chicken breasts (the skin may be on or off depending on eater's preference)
1 teaspoon salt or 1 teaspoon salt substitute
1 teaspoon dehydrated dried rosemary (basil and oregano make fine substitutes for rosemary)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 slices monterey jack pepper cheese
3 slices tomatoes (thin slices)

Steps:

  • Thaw and clean chicken, tenderize with a mallet or something.
  • preheat oven to 425; place foil in the bottom of a baking pan (this eliminates a lot of pan scrubbing afterwards) and put a rack on top of the foil. place entire pan into the oven to preheat for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • sprinkle spices on chicken evenly and bake in oven for 30 minutes turning once after 15 minutes,.
  • prepare tomato and cheese topping. slice tomatoes in less than 1/4 inch slices.
  • after 30 minutes, remove chicken from oven to ensure it is cooked thoroughly. turn on broiler.
  • place 1 slice of cheese per breast and centered, and 1 slice of tomato on top of the cheese and return to oven for broiling.
  • broil in oven for approximately 4 minutes or until cheese has slightly melted and tomato is slightly crispy on the edges. (trust me, it's delicious).
  • remove and enjoy.
