Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup flour, approximately (any flour of your choice including gluten-free for those who require it)
- salt, to taste (be careful how much you add because the cheese contains salt!)
- cracked black pepper , to taste
- 1 large heirloom tomato, sliced about 1/4-inch ( any variety and the freshest , best quality you can find!)
- fresh basil , for garnish (*not* dried basil, no!)
Directions:
- Pound the chicken pieces thinly then dredge lightly in flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Tip: I use a fine mesh sieve. To do this, place the chicken in a shallow pan to catch any flour dust then lightly coat the chicken pieces with flour using the sieve.
- Heat up the olive oil a large skillet over medium heat.
- Place the chicken pieces in the pan and cook until golden on both sides. You will need to do this in batches. Transfer the browned pieces onto a warming tray or lined baking sheet in a low oven (300º or thereabouts.).
- Once browning is complete, transfer all the cooked chicken parts to the warming tray arranging them singly on the tray.
- On each piece place about 2 thin slices of the fresh mozzarella and several tomato slices.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and melt the cheese slightly-perhaps only a few minutes-checking periodically.
- Transfer the chicken to a serving platter.
- Garnish the chicken with minced fresh basil and a sprinkle of cracked black pepper.
- Serve immediately.
