Chicken Bruschetta Bake

I found a version of this recipe on the back of my box of Stove Top Stuffing. I modified it a little (because I'm obnoxious that way) and it turned out really good. The whole family said it was very good, though Kinley wants it made next time without tomatoes ;)
Ingredients:
1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained
1 package Stove Top Stuffing
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 tsp dried basil leaves
1/2 cup hot water
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tbs olive oil

Directions:
In olive oil, cook chicken in large skillet until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes each side (I recommend only two breasts at a time in the pan, but don't add more oil with second batch.) When chicken is golden brown, put in the bottom of a sprayed 9x13 pan.

Mix water, tomatoes, basil, and garlic in a bowl. Add stuffing mix. Sprinkle mixture over the chicken. Bake for 25 minutes uncovered at 350 degrees. Top with cheese and bake for 5 more minutes. Serve warm.
