Ingredients

4 ounces smoked mozzarella sliced
Parmesan cheese for garnish, optional

Grilled Chicken

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Marinated Tomatoes

3 medium fresh ripe tomatoes diced
2 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 Tablespoons basil leaves rolled and cut into strips
2 cloves garlic minced
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat the grill. Prepare your grill by spraying the grates with non-stick spray and turning the temperature setting up to medium high. Close the lid and allow the grill to preheat to about 400-425 degrees F.
Season and grill the chicken. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with the Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and pepper. Place on the grill grates and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning once, until an internal thermometer reads 165 degrees F.
Make the marinated tomatoes. While the chicken cooks, combine the tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, basil, garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir well and set aside.
Add the cheese and tomatoes to the chicken. Once the chicken is up to temperature, top each with 2 slices of the smoked mozzarella and a spoonful of the marinated tomatoes. Close the lid and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Serve hot. Serve the grilled chicken on a bed of spaghetti with the extra marinated tomatoes and a shaving of fresh Parmesan cheese.

Notes

Serving suggestion: This grilled bruschetta chicken tastes great served over cooked whole wheat spaghetti. Simply follow the directions on the packaging and place finished bruschetta chicken over the pasta.
