From Cafe Delites, this is a low carb, high protein version of traditional Bruschetta

Recipe

Ingredients

Topping Ingredients

  • 4 Roma tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 1/4 of red onion, finely diced
  • 4 tbsp shredded fresh basil
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup freshly shaved Parmesan cheese

Balsamic Glaze

  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp brown sugar

Method

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Serve immediately with balsamic glaze.

For The Balsamic Glaze:

  1. (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).
