- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with foil or parchment for easy clean-up.
- Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Spread about 1 teaspoon of pesto over each piece of chicken.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center. Remove from oven; top with tomatoes, mozzarella, and parmesan cheese. Bake an additional 3 to 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
- For grilling: Grill chicken over medium flame until cooked through. Top with pesto, tomatoes, and cheese, then close the grill until cheese melts.
