Step 1
Pat chicken breasts dry and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear chicken 6-7 minutes per side without moving. Edges should look golden; center stays opaque.
Step 4

Step 5
Spoon tomato mixture over each chicken breast and top with mozzarella.
Step 6
Cover skillet with foil and cook 2-3 minutes until cheese melts and tomatoes soften.
