Equipment

  • Baking Dish
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups fresh spinach
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 1/4 cup balsamic glaze

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease a baking dish.
  • Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer in the prepared dish.
  • Layer the spinach evenly over the chicken, followed by the tomato slices and mozzarella slices.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees and the cheese is melted and lightly golden.
  • Remove from the oven and drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top before serving.

Notes

For the best texture, slice the tomatoes and mozzarella just before assembling so they do not release too much liquid during baking. If you prefer a stronger balsamic flavor, warm the glaze for a few seconds before drizzling. Leftovers reheat well in a covered skillet over low heat to keep the cheese from drying out.
