Time 16m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 ounces cheddar cheese
4 cherry tomatoes
2 teaspoons pesto sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill by turning it to high.
  • Sandwich the chicken breasts between two plastic food bags and beat them firmly with a rolling pin or base of a saucepan to flaten them by a third.
  • heat the oil in a non stick frying pan, add the chicken and cook for 2 minutes on each side until golden.
  • Grate the cheese and quarter the tomatoes and mix the two together.
  • Take the chicken out of the pan and wipe out the oil so that it doesn't spit under the grill later.
  • Return the chicken to the pan, spread each with a tsp of pesto, then pile the cheese and tomatoes on top.
  • Put under the hot grill for a minute or so until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
