| Bruschetta chicken |
Italian Herb Chicken Bruschetta Chicken Recipe is exactly like the traditional hard bread version, but instead of bread, we use chicken that is rubbed with chopped garlic and seasoned with lighter food in minutes! Surrounded by balsamic glaze for added flavor, the whole family loves this weekly dinner.
Italian Herb Chicken Bruschetta Chicken Recipe
This is one of the foods that I make almost every day when dieting, because this chicken has so much flavor that it doesn't taste like 'diet food'. When we leave the restaurant, what do we order? bruschetta
lunch or dinner
Italian Herb Chicken Bruschetta Chicken Recipe is also not just a dinner recipe. You can also prepare this for lunch and enjoy it with a salad! If you don't think you will have time to make it when you need it, you can prepare Bruschetta toppings the night before and allow the flavors to blend and marinate together before topping your chicken the next day! Cook your chicken the day before too, and you will eat in minutes on demand!

some tips for getting the perfect bruschetta chicken:
Use a mixture of dried Italian herbs or Italian herbs. If you prefer a softer mixture, you can make your own mix with dried oregano, dried basil, dried parsley, maybe some rosemary, or any other mixture you like.
I love Roma tomatoes with this Bruschetta. You can replace it with ripe tomatoes, or use grape tomatoes or cherry tomatoes!
Not a fan of onions? No problem! Replace with finely chopped garlic!
Try using fresh parmesan cheese, and thinly sliced with a vegetable peeler!
You can bake your chicken in a skillet OR grill on a grill skillet (or use a barbecue to add flavor)
balsamic glaze
If you can't find balsamic glaze, you can make it yourself in less than 10 minutes, and it's very valuable! But again, it's entirely up to you. I have included homemade balsamic glaze in the recipe for you. Technically, balsamic glaze doesn't need any sugar to thicken it into a glaze, however, I prefer a little brown sugar. You can leave it if you wish.

Steps to make Italian Herb Chicken Bruschetta Chicken Recipe :

For Balsamic Glaze:
(If making from scratch, prepare while the chicken is being cooked.) Mix sugar (if using) and vinegar in a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer for 5-8 minutes or until the mixture thickens and decreases to glaze. (If not using sugar, leave it for 12-15 minutes over low heat).NOTE
* If you don't have Italian seasoning, use dried Italian spices. Or combine 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of dried basil, and 1 teaspoon of dried parsley.
