Alright, it’s mid July folks. Anyone tired of grilled chicken yet?
Personally, I’m not. Especially when I have this recipe up my sleeve but I know that a simple mix up to the classic grilled chicken is always welcome and that is exactly what this bruschetta chicken recipe is. Especially when the summer jewels, tomatoes, are bursting with flavor. My goodness, how can something be so good. All you have to do is chop and mix it up with a few simple ingredients. On top of chicken melted with ooey gooey cheese it goes, and BAM!
You’ve got yourself a winner.
