Bruschetta Chicken Recipe with Parmesan Crisps - What's For Din'? - Courtney Budzyn - Recipe 98

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories while maintaining flavor.

balsamic vinegar

🥗Healthier: red wine vinegar

💰Cheaper: apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is often less expensive and still provides acidity.

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Chop roma tomatoes and remove seeds; mix with fresh parsley, red onion, minced garlic, a pinch of lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, dried thyme, dried basil, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper.

Place seasoned chicken breasts in the oven for about 30 minutes.

In the last 5 minutes, top chicken with mozzarella cheese and switch oven to broil for 2-3 minutes until cheese is bubbly and brown.

While chicken cooks, make a glaze by simmering balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over medium-high heat until thickened, about 10-15 minutes.

Assemble the dish by placing Parmesan crisps on the plate, then the chicken, followed by the tomato mixture, and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
