Yöntemler

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

2. In a bowl, combine the chicken, olive oil, fig preserves, if using, vinegar, Italian seasoning, oregano, garlic, basil, salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Let sit for 5 minutes or up to overnight in the fridge.

3. Meanwhile, make the tomatoes. Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and chili flakes.

4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and the marinade left in the bowl. Sear on both sides until golden, 3 minutes per side. Top each piece of chicken with cheese and spoon over 2 big spoonfuls of the tomatoes. Bake 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked throughout.

5. Finish with the remaining tomatoes and basil. Serve with lots of yummy crusty bread! Pasta is delicious too!
