Creating Balsamic Baked Chicken Breast with Mozzarella Cheese is straightforward when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Marinade: In a medium bowl, mix balsamic vinegar, honey, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Marinate Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more intense flavor.
4. Transfer to Baking Dish: Place the marinated chicken breasts in a baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
5. Bake the Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6. Add Mozzarella: During the last 5 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella over the chicken breasts. Return to the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.

By following these simple steps, you will create a stunning dish that is as delicious as it is visually appealing!
