Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2. Boil the potatoes in water for 10 minutes, then drain and let them cool slightly.
3. Cover each potato with a clean towel and gently press it flat with your hand, keeping it together. Put them on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
4. Bake the potatoes for 10-15 minutes.
5. Heat a little oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and brown on both sides; it does not need to be cooked through.
6. Scatter the sun-dried tomatoes and cheese slices over the chicken, then move the pan to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese has melted.
7. Top the chicken with basil and balsamic reduction, and serve with the potatoes.
