Step 1:
How to make a chicken breast chop in the oven with cheese and tomatoes? Prepare the products. Rinse the meat in running water and dry it with paper towels or napkins. Cut each chicken breast crosswise into two equal parts. It is best for this recipe to use chilled fresh meat that has not been frozen.
Step 2:
Cover the chicken breast pieces with cling film and beat them off with a cooking hammer. Then turn the pieces over and beat off a little more on the other side. It is very convenient to beat off meat using a food film — a piece of meat retains its shape and splashes from it do not scatter throughout the kitchen.
Step 3:
Cover the baking tray with foil and grease with vegetable oil. Place the chipped pieces of chicken breast on a baking sheet and smear them with a silicone brush over the entire surface with a mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup.
Step 4:
Wash tomatoes and cut into thin circles.
Step 5:
Spread the sliced tomatoes on the surface of the meat. Sprinkle a little salt and spices.
Step 6:
Grate the cheese separately on a coarse grater.
Step 7:
Sprinkle the chops with grated cheese. Try to sprinkle so that the cheese is all on the surface of the chop and does not get on the baking sheet, otherwise, when baking, it will burn. Also sprinkle the meat with chopped dill or other herbs to taste a little. Place a baking sheet with chicken chops in the oven, preheated to 190 degrees, for 30 minutes. The cheese will have to melt and brown on top.
Step 8:
Remove the finished chops from the oven and place them on serving plates. Serve them with any side dish, with a salad of fresh vegetables or just with sliced vegetables. Bon appetit!

Many people believe that chicken chops cooked in the oven turn out dry. But this is not the case. Before baking, their surface simply needs to be lubricated with something. To do this, you can use sour cream, mustard or, as in this recipe. a mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup. This will impregnate the meat fibers, so that the meat will become juicy and very tasty.
Turmeric, basil, curry, garlic or a mixture of ground peppers will help to emphasize the taste of chicken well.

Choose juicy tomatoes, but dense. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

Any cheese is suitable for this dish — hard, semi-hard, soft, like mozzarella. The main thing is that it is tasty, high-quality, without milk fat substitutes and melts well.

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
