There is something so special about the combination of juicy tomatoes, fresh basil, and balsamic glaze. When you pile those flavors onto a perfectly grilled chicken breast, it becomes a meal that feels fancy enough for guests but is simple enough for a Tuesday night.

Adding slices of creamy avocado right at the end makes this dish feel extra luxurious. My best tip is to let your tomato mixture sit for about twenty minutes before serving, as this gives the garlic and herbs time to really wake up.

🧺 Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 cups cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ripe avocado, sliced
1/4 cup balsamic glaze
Salt and black pepper to taste

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
2
Preheat your grill or a large skillet over medium heat.
3
Cook the chicken for about six to eight minutes per side until it is golden brown and cooked through.
4
While the chicken cooks, stir the tomatoes, chopped basil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil together in a medium bowl.
5
Once the chicken is finished, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
6
Top each chicken breast with the tomato mixture and a few fresh avocado slices.
7
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top just before serving.

💡 Tips

This dish is best served immediately while the chicken is warm. If you have leftovers, store the chicken and the tomato mixture in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to two days to keep the avocado from browning and the tomatoes from getting too soft.
