SUMMER TIME

Hello ladies and gents this is the viking telling you that today we are talking about 

Bruschetta Grilled Chicken

INGREDIENTS

• 4 tbsp. Extra-virgin olive oil
• Juice of 1 lemon, divided
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tsp. Italian seasoning or dried oregano
• 4 boneless skinless antibiotic free chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness
• 3 slicing tomatoes, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp. Freshly chopped basil
• 4 slices mozzarella
• Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

 

DIRECTIONS

1. In a small bowl, combine oil, half the lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and Italian seasoning (or oregano) and whisk to combine. Transfer to a large re-sealable bag along with chicken; seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. Heat grill over medium-high then add chicken, discarding excess marinade. Grill until charred and cooked to an internal temperature of 165°, about 5 to 7 minutes per side.
3. Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, garlic, basil, and remaining lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. While chicken is still on grill, top each breast with 1 slice mozzarella and cover until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Top chicken with tomato mixture. 
4. Garnish with Parmesan and serve.

And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
