- 1 tsp olive oil for the pan

- Heat up an oven safe grill pan on high heat. Add oil to the pan.
- Remove the chicken from the bag and discard bag.
- Add the chicken and cook for one minute on each side to get the grill marks.
- Take the oven safe grill pan and put it in the oven. Cook for 10 minutes.
- Turn the chicken over. Add some of the tomato mixture on top. Cook an additional 8 to 10 minutes or until the internal temperature of your chicken reaches 165º.
- Serve each piece of chicken with additional tomato mixture.
Notes
Sun-dried Tomato dressing can be really hard to find so if you can't find it use some Italian dressing as it works just as well. If you don't have an oven safe grill pan you can also bake this recipe by following the steps below.
- Preheat oven to 350º.
- Once chicken is marinated, place it on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Turn the chicken over and top with some of the tomato mixture. Bake an additional 10 to 20 minutes (depending on the thickness of your chicken breast) until the chicken reaches 165º.
- Serve each piece of chicken with additional tomato mixture.
