Italian Herb Bruschetta Chicken

Ingredients

For The Chicken:

2 large boneless , skinless, chicken breasts, halved horizontally to make 4 fillets
3 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 teaspoons minced garlic
salt to taste
1 tablespoon of olive oil (for cooking)

For The Topping:

4 roma tomatoes , finely chopped
1/4 of a red onion , finely chopped (or 3 cloves finely chopped garlic)
4 tablespoons shredded fresh basil
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt to taste
½ cup freshly shaved parmesan cheese
Balsamic Glaze: (you can use store bought, or this recipe)
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons brown sugar (OPTIONAL)

Instructions

Season chicken with Italian seasoning, garlic and salt. Heat oil in a grill pan or skillet, and sear chicken breasts over medium-high heat until browned on both sides and cooked through (about 6 minutes each side). Remove from pan; set aside and allow to rest.

Combine the tomatoes, red onion, basil, olive oil in a bowl. Season with salt. Top each chicken breast with the tomato mixture and parmesan cheese.

Serve immediately with balsamic glaze (optional).

For The Balsamic Glaze:

(If making from scratch, prepare while chicken is cooking.) Combine sugar (if using) and vinegar in a small saucepan over high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low; allow to simmer for 5-8 minutes or until mixture has thickened and reduced to a glaze. (If not using sugar, allow to reduce for 12-15 minutes on low heat).
