Ahhh, spring has sprung finally here in the Capitol District! It was a long winter but we have made it through and are now dreaming of warmer days and cookouts with friends. Got a party to go to? A BBQ maybe? Why not think Chicken first? Chicken is very versatile and allows for a spectrum of different flavors. Why not try our Basil and Tomato Chicken Breasts and wow your friends!
BASIL AND TOMATO CHICKEN BREASTS:
This is a great way to prepare chicken breasts. The combination of tomatoes, basil and balsamic vinegar gives this dish an Italian inspired flavor.
INGREDIENTS:
- 4 Chicken Breasts, skinless and deboned
- 4-6 Tomatoes, quartered
- 1/2 Cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 Cup fresh basil, loosely packed
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 Cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon black pepper, ground
Combine garlic, tomatoes, vinegar, oil, basil, black pepper and salt in a food processor.
In a large, resealable plastic bag, add chicken and marinade. Make sure Chicken is well coated. Seal bag and allow to marinate for 6-8 hours in refrigerator.
Preheat grill
Place chicken on grill and cook on medium heat for 10-12 minutes, turning once. Remove chicken from heat and garnish with diced tomatoes and chopped basil.
And there you have it! A dish that will make you shine at all your spring get togethers! Enjoy!
