Notes
Cheese: You can melt a slice of mozzarella directly on top of the chicken, or mix fresh mozzarella cubes in with the tomatoes.
Grilling the meat: This dish also works with grilled chicken. Just season and cook on grill until cooked through, then add bruschetta on top.
Balsamic glaze: If you don't have any glaze on hand, make one yourself by using this easy 2-ingredient balsamic glaze recipe.
