What do I need to make Caprese chicken?

How to Make Grilled Caprese Chicken
Heat your grill to 350 degrees.
1. Season your chicken breasts with poultry seasoning. My favorite is Paul Prudhommes Poultry Magic. After you have seasoned your chicken breasts, cover them on both sides with a coat of Pam cooking spray. (This will keep your chicken breasts moist and not allow them to dry out while on the grill.) You will grill your chicken 8 – 10 minutes on each side.
2. While your chicken is grilling, go ahead and get your additional ingredients ready to place on the chicken. Place your Balsamic vinegar in a small pan to also go on the grill.
3. Open the grill after the chicken has cooked and then place the mozzarella slice, basil leaf, and tomato slice on each chicken breast. Place the pan with Balsamic vinegar on the grill to the side to heat up as well. After 2 minutes, drizzle the bubbling vinegar over the chicken breasts and then cook for an additional 2 minutes.
4. Remove the chicken breasts from the grill and serve warm with a side of potatoes and a salad.
