Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Season chicken with salt and pepper

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate and set aside

Add garlic to the skillet and cook over medium-low heat, frequently stirring, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes, add fresh tomato and cook 1 more minute.
