Italian Tomato Bruschetta Chicken with Fresh Mozzarella

Made with only a few ingredients—most of which you probably already have on-hand—this flavorful Italian-inspired baked chicken recipe is easy enough for a Tuesday, but tasty enough for weekend dinner guests.

INGREDIENTS

• 3 teaspoons DeLallo Roasted Garlic & Parmesan Seasoning Spices in DeLallo Dipping Seasoning Spices
• 2 teaspoons DeLallo Chopped Garlic in Water
• 1 tablespoon DeLallo Lemon Juice Slice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons DeLallo Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 (9.88-ounce) jar DeLallo Italian Tomato Bruschetta
• 4 slices fresh mozzarella

DIRECTIONS

1. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together seasoning spices, garlic, lemon juice, salt and 3 tablespoons of oil. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag or a deep dish. Pour marinade over the chicken. Seal or cover, then refrigerate. Marinate for at least 30 minutes up to 4 hours to allow flavors to develop.
2. Heat remaining oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken to the pan. Sear until chicken is browned on both sides and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes on each side.
3. Turn oven to broil setting. Spoon equal amounts of bruschetta on top of each chicken breast. Top each breast with a slice of mozzarella. Broil until the cheese is melted and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes.
4. Remove from the oven. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then serve.
