Creating this incredible Garlic Tomato Chicken with Mozzarella is both simple and rewarding. Follow these easy steps to bring this dish to life:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
2. Prepare Ingredients: Gather and chop all the ingredients to make the cooking process smooth.
3. Season the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried oregano on both sides.
4. Sear Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the pan and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
