Grilled Bruschetta Chicken




This is by far my favorite recipe discovery of 2008. SO GOOD!







4 boneless skinless chicken breasts.
4 T. Italian dressing, divided
2 small tomatoes, finely chopped
Bunch of fresh basil. (Recipe calls for 1 tsp dried basil, but fresh is sooooo much better!)
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese (I didn't have any on hand, so I chopped up a string cheese stick)

Marinade the chicken with 2T. Italian dressing for 10 minutes. Cover 1/2 of grill with heavy duty foil. Heat grill and place chicken on the uncovered side of the grill. Throw away the marinade. Cook for 6 minutes. In the meantime, mix the tomatoes, remaining dressing, basil, and cheese. Turn chicken over and place on foil. Top with tomato mixture and grill for 8 minutes, until chicken is done and cheese is melted.
