Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 bone-in chicken breasts, seasoned with salt and pepper (about 8 oz. each)
6 grape or cherry tomatoes
1⁄4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
1 Tbsp. minced fresh rosemary
1 Tbsp. minced fresh sage leaves
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Preheat oven to 450°. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté chicken skin-side down in skillet until golden, 4 minutes. Turn chicken over, sauté 2 more minutes, then transfer skillet to the oven. Roast chicken 15 minutes; add tomatoes to the skillet. Cook chicken until a thermometer inserted into the meat registers 160°, about 5 more minutes. Combine 1/4 cup oil, garlic, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper on a small serving platter. Transfer chicken and tomatoes to the platter. Let chicken rest 10 minutes before serving, flipping the piece every few minutes to coat with oil and herbs.
