Grilled Chicken Parmesan

1 shallot chopped

28 ounces of crushed tomatoes

3 garlic cloves whole and peeled

6 basil leaves

¼ pound of Parmesan in chunks

4 chicken breasts

Pinch of salt and pepper

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

½ pound fresh mozzarella sliced thinly

Sauté shallots until golden. Add crushed tomatoes, garlic, basil, and Parmesan chunks. Stir, cover and let simmer. Simple, fresh ingredients is the key to the sauce. Sauce should simmer for a minimum four hours.

Trim any fat from chicken breasts. Toss chicken in salt, pepper and olive oil. Place chicken breasts on grill until cooked roughly 15 minutes. When chicken is finished, place it in an oven-safe dish. Add sauce to the chicken and around it. Evenly distribute the fresh mozzarella to each chicken breast and broil until the cheese is bubbly.
