We have been looking for a simple quick chicken dinner recipe & came across this Bruschetta Chicken at allrecipes.com. What is Bruschetta you ask? When it has been served to me, as an appetizer, it included a salsa type mixture placed on top of garlic toast with a bit of cheese.
Bruschetta Chicken Bake
Allrecipes.com
1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves-cubed
1 tsp salt
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
½ cup water
1 Tbs minced garlic
1 (6 ounce) box chicken-flavored dry bread stuffing mix
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 Tbs Italian seasoning
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray 9x13 glass baking dish with cooking spray.
- Toss the cubed chicken with the salt in a large bowl. Place the chicken in a layer into the bottom of the baking dish. Stir together tomatoes, water, garlic, & stuffing mix in a large bowl; set aside to soften. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the chicken, then sprinkle with the Italian seasoning. Spread the softened stuffing mixture on top.
- Bake uncovered until the chicken cubes have turned white & are no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes.
Tupps Tidbits ~ cut the chicken in similar size to ensure the chicken is cooked evenly
This was an extremely simple & quick meal to prepare & have on the table in about 45 minutes. You can have everything cut up & ready to go by the time the oven preheats. It was a delicious creative chicken meal that really mimicked the popular Italian appetizer. Defiantly a KEEPER & one will we be making again & again!
Also, just an FYI, we have been behind a few weeks in “posting “the recipes on the blog, but to ensure you, we are keeping up with our 2012 resolution in making/trying one new recipe a week. Are you still working on your resolution?
