Bruschetta Chicken



This was delicious.


Bruschetta Chicken


5 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
Montreal chicken seasoning or Penzey's Chicago steak seasoning*
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/2 small red onion, chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 avocado, diced
salt pepper
1/3 cup goat cheese, crumbled
about 5 - 6 cups mixed greens


Heat a grill to high. Season chicken with seasonings. For balsamic vinaigrette, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper. Set aside. Grill chicken for about 4 - 5 minutes per side. Baste with balsamic vinaigrette - watch for flare ups. Remove from grill and let rest for about 5 minutes.Combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, avocado, and a dash of salt and pepper. Set aside.To serve, place about 1+ cup of the mixed greens on a plate. Slice one chicken breast and place on top of the greens. Top with tomato mixture, some of the goat cheese, and drizzle with the balsamic vinaigrette. Serve.


* I don't have either of these. I will use plain old lemon pepper.

I also added radishes and cucumbers, chopped.
