  4. Lightly toss all of the ingredients together. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  5. To prepare the glaze- in a small bowl whisk together ketchup, ¼ cup balsamic vinegar, oregano and 4 tablespoons brown sugar.
  6. Lightly grease the grates of an outdoor grill. Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts to the grill.
  7. Grill the chicken breasts turning once until they are almost fully cooked (about 10 minutes per side). Brush the chicken breasts on each side a couple of times with the glaze.
  8. Continue to cook the chicken until it is fully cooked (the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees F.). During the last few minutes of cooking, top the chicken breasts with some mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Close the grill and cook until the cheese has melted.
