Caciocavallo Cheese at Cardonas!

On Sale

11.89lb.

Caciocavallo
is a type of cheese made out of sheep's or cow's milk, originally produced in Sicily, Italy, but now spread all across the Balkans.
The Italian name of the cheese caciocavallo means "Cheese on horseback" and it is sometimes thought that it was originally made from mare's milk, although there appears to be no historical evidence for this. More likely, the name derives from the fact that the curd is left to dry by placing it 'a cavallo', i.e. straddling, upon a horizontal stick or branch.
This cheese is shaped like a tear-drop and is similar in taste to aged provolone, with a hard edible rind.

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

PREPARATION:
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!
