    This dish is made with Italian chicken cutlets, burst balsamic cherry tomatoes, and melty burrata for a total flavor bomb that will make Sunday dinner a whole vibe.

    Cutlets with Balsamic Burst Cherry Tomato Ingredients

    Here’s everything you need to make this dreamy dish:

    Chicken cutlets: You can use my chicken cutlet recipe or your own if you wish.

    Cherry tomatoes: Grape tomatoes work well, too!

    Shallots and garlic: For the burst tomatoes

    Balsamic vinegar: Adds a beautiful sweet tartness to the sauce

    Spices: We’ll be using red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper

    Olive oil: For the burst tomatoes.

    Burrata: The way this melts over the cutlets… to die for!

    Fresh basil: For garnish

    How to Make Balsamic Burst Cherry Tomatoes

    Step 1: Prep your ingredients.

    Prep your garlic and shallots (as well as your chicken and dredging stations during this time).

    Step 2: Cook with garlic and shallots.

    Add the olive oil along with the garlic, shallots, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt and pepper to the pot over medium heat. Let cook until slightly softened (just about 3 minutes).

    Step 3: Add the tomatoes and balsamic.

    Add the tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. Stir to coat, and then let cook for ~15 minutes, or until the tomatoes begin to burst.

    *You can cook the chicken cutlets at this time.

    Step 4: Pop a few of the tomatoes.

    With your spatula, pop a few of the tomatoes so that they smoosh to get included in the sauce. Stir. Once most of the tomatoes have burst (aka split a bit), you’re done!

    Step 5: Finish the dish

    Add the warm cutlets to a platter and top with burrata. Spoon the burst tomatoes, along with the shallots and garlic, on top of the burrata pieces. Top with some fresh basil and enjoy!
