Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 4 (5 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
• 1 tablespoon Spice Islands® Italian Herb Seasoning
• 2 cups diced plum tomatoes
• 0.25 cup diced red onion
• 0.25 cup finely chopped fresh basil
• 0.25 cup Mazola® Corn Oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Spice Islands® Fine Grind Sea Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Spice Islands® Fine Grind Black Pepper
• 0.5 cup shredded Italian blend cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Place chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic freezer bag, one at a time. Lightly pound chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 3/4-inch.

Step 3

Combine oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, Italian herb seasoning, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk until combined. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, reseal bag, and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 4

Combine remaining marinade with diced tomatoes and red onion; set aside.

Step 5

Transfer chicken from marinade onto grill surface and discard marinade. Grill chicken for 4 to 6 minutes per side or until no longer pink in the center and cooked through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 6

Transfer chicken to a serving plate and sprinkle with shredded cheese; spoon bruschetta mixture over chicken and top with basil. Serve immediately.
