Place the chicken breasts skin side up in an oven dish. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with a little Tuscan seasoning. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the juices run clear when pierced with a skewer. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve sliced on a bed of roasted vegetables such as red and yellow peppers, eggplant, red onion, tomato and basil. Drizzle with the pan juices.
