Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless chicken breasts

- 4 slices Mozzarella cheese
- 4 pieces Italian sandwich rolls
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 8 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 1 large Tomato

Instructions
Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure uniform cooking.
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken breasts for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C).
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.
While the chicken rests, slice the tomato into thin rounds and set aside.
Cut the Italian sandwich rolls in half and lightly butter the cut sides.
Toast the buttered sides of the sandwich rolls in a clean skillet or griddle until golden brown.
Spread mayonnaise evenly across the toasted sides of each roll.
Place a cooked chicken breast on the bottom half of each sandwich roll.
Top each chicken breast with a slice of mozzarella cheese and 2 basil leaves.
Add one or two slices of tomato on top of the basil leaves.
Place the top half of the roll onto the sandwich and press gently to assemble.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, cheesy Chicken Mozzarella Sandwich!
