Pinterest has become a very useful tool! This is one recipe that I found while searching through Pinterest. It was absolutely amazing as well! It came with two different recipes; one with just the chicken, and one as a sandwich. I cooked the first one and hope to try the sandwich another day. With this chicken I served it with “HEB Macaroni and Cheese Dinner Mix.” The macaroni box said that a serving was 1cup for 400 calories! If you have ever measured out food, you will realize that just a ½ cup is quite a bit already! So be sure to make smart decisions! Eat what you want, but watch how much you put on your plate!
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did!
Balsamic Grilled Bruschetta Chicken
Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, thawed (I use the big Costco bag)
Pinch of salt
¼ Cup balsamic vinegar
¼ Cup extra virgin olive oil
8 slices fresh mozzarella cheese
4 Roma Tomatoes, seeded and diced
8 fresh basil leaves, stacked, rolled and thinly sliced into chiffonade
3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
Pinch of salt
1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Preparation:
1. Preheat a grill pan over medium heat on the stovetop. Spray with cooking spray. Combine balsamic and olive oil in a bowl. Season both sides of chicken with pinches of salt and place on grill. Brush top sides of chicken with balsamic mixture. Cook for 4-5 minutes and flip chicken. Brush with additional balsamic and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until cooked through. During the last 2 minutes of grilling place 2 slices of cheese over top each chicken to melt.
2. In a large bowl combine the tomatoes, basil garlic, salt and balsamic. Toss gently to combine. Place chicken breasts on a serving plate and top with tomato mixture. Serve warm.
