Chicken with mozzarella and cherry tomatoes, baked in small ovenproof dishes: Axelle's take on caprese chicken, with cherry tomatoes that turn soft and sweet all around.

The cutlets are laid flat, covered with tomato and mozzarella slices, then surrounded with cherry tomatoes. A drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and 30 minutes at 200 °C.

A splash of balsamic vinegar and some basil just before serving.
