This is a great way to prepare this traditional favorite. Don't worry, while this recipe doesn't call for tomato sauce, it uses sliced tomatoes instead.

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 Roma tomatoes, sliced thinly
4 ounces (115 grams) mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/4 inch slices
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) Parmesan cheese
5 to 6 basil leaves
2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) olive oil
1/2 teaspoon (2 1/2 milliliters) salt
1/2 teaspoon (2 1/2 milliliters) freshly ground black pepper

Gather the ingredients.
Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
Pound chicken breast until about 1/4 inch thick.
Coat with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Place chicken on grill and cook for 5 minutes.
Turn chicken over and place cheese and tomato slices on top.
Cook for an additional 5 to 6 minutes.
Once the internal temperature of chicken reaches 165 F., remove from heat, allow to sit for 1 to 2 minutes and place basil leaves on chicken before serving.
Either serve over pasta or make into a chicken parmesan sandwich.
Enjoy!
