Caprese Grilled Chicken Dinner

More yum time!  Another Pinterest adventure here from this site.


We could all use a little more of refreshing dishes involving "the favorite meat"- chicken.  This dish satisfies that need.  We made this one on Tuesday and cut down the recipe for just the two of us and our George Foreman, since we cannot have a grill in our current living situation.

Oops forgot to take a picture, it smelled and tasted so good we had devoured it before I remembered.  You can find a picture from the original site here.


Ingredients
2 grilled (on a George Foreman) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4c balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp butter
2 slices fresh mozzarella
2 slices fresh tomato
2 lg basil leaves

Instructions
  • Grill chicken on the George foreman until cooked thoroughly (not pink on the inside, white inside only people - chicken 101)
  • At the same time (or if you want to prep before you can) pour balsamic vinegar into pan on stove top - medium high heat.  
  • Cook until reduced by half (yup you are making a reduction sauce, congrats!)
  • Add butter and stir until mixed and has become thicker version of what it was when you started (set aside)
  • While the chicken is still on the Foreman, add slice of mozzarella, followed by basil and tomato on top to each breast until cheese melts just a bit
  • Place on plates and drizzle with balsamic reduction sauce you made, serve warm.

Hope you enjoy it, please share comments, suggestions, or thoughts. And pass along to friends!
