Delicious Bruschetta Chicken – Easy Weeknight Meal

November 4, 2013


Bruchetta Chicken that is so delicious and easy to make

Chicken, chicken, chicken. What to do…. there are days I’m not even sure and that’s where my adventure comes in. With this recipe, the addition of cherry tomatoes, garlic and a hint of whiskey makes this bruchetta chicken a delicious weeknight dinner or for your next dinner party.

This bruschetta chicken recipe has an abundance of flavor. And it comes out juicy since you sear it prior to baking. That keeps it from being overly dry. Also, don’t let the 2-hour prep time scare you. It’s for the marinade!

Chicken is so versatile as it is and this one gives chicken that extra something that takes it to a whole new level. I love bruschetta when I go to an Italian restaurant, so making a bruchetta chicken sounded fantastic. Now even though the chicken doesn’t look all that appetizing in the plastic bag, don’t let that deter you. Once all the ingredients are put together, this is one amazing meal. And who doesn’t like a little cheese on top too?

This bruschetta chicken was a hit with the hubby although he didn’t add the tomatoes to his piece. I served it with fresh broccoli for a well rounded nutritious meal.

    So, the title says “easy weeknight meal” and the description says 2 hours prep! Scared me off until I realized that was marinating time.

    This looks so good. What could I substituted for whiskey? (We don’t do alcohol.)
