Chicken Bruschetta

By Blair Lindler

So the other weekend, my house-mate and I were brainstorming what we wanted to cook for dinner.  We were hungry.  Our tomato plant had just produced a handful of small tomatoes, so we wanted to use those.  I wanted chicken. We decided on Italian.  But we just couldn’t seem to find a recipe we liked.  So we decided to make it up as we went!  And that, my friends, is how we came to create what I lovingly call “Chicken Bruschetta.”

Serve with your favorite green vegetables or a heaping salad- you will not be disappointed!

Ingredients:

  • 3 Chicken Breasts
  • 1 Large slicing tomato, diced
  •  WildTree Tuscan seasoning
  • Olive Oil
  • Freshly grated Parmesan Cheese

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350
  2. In a glass baking dish, pour about 2 T of olive oil and rotate to coat bottom of pan
  3. Season both sides of chicken breasts with Tuscan seasoning to taste
  4. Place chicken breasts in glass baking dish, and top with tomatoes
  5. You can also add a little more Tuscan seasoning on top of the tomatoes
  6. Drizzle a little olive oil on top of the chicken/tomatoes
  7. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top of tomatoes to taste
  8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake until done (30-50 minutes depending on the chicken thickness)

And that’s it!!  Serve with your favorite green vegetables or a heaping salad and you will *not* be disappointed!  Sometimes it pays off to experiment in the kitchen – so don’t be afraid!  Go get your hands dirty!

*Note: I did try regular Italian seasoning instead of the Tuscan seasoning.  I personally prefer the Tuscan seasoning, but if you don’t have any, try the Italian seasoning.
