Garden Chicken Bruschetta

     Light, healthy, simple and flavorful, Bruschetta is a classic Italian anti-pasto that has more than earned it's place here and abroad.

Here's what you'll need:
4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
1/4 pound Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 Large Diced Tomato (Approximately 1/2 pound)
1 Diced Green Bell Pepper
1 Small Diced Onion
4 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 Tablespoons Basil
1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic (Preferably fresh)
2 Teaspoons Lemon Juice
1/2 Teaspoon Salt

Here's what you'll do:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit 
  2. Bake Chicken for 45 minutes on a cookie sheet(or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit is reached)
  3. While Chicken cooks mix all other ingredients except Mozzarella to make your Bruschetta Topping and allow to rest until chicken is finished cooking.
  4. Remove chicken from oven and split the Bruschetta Topping evenly over all four pieces, top with Mozzarella, and return to oven until cheese is melted .(This usually takes less than a minute.)
  5. Enjoy.
