How to Make Baked Bruschetta Chicken
To make this Bruschetta Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner Recipe, start by slicing two large chicken breasts in half to create four thinner breast pieces. Season the chicken with olive oil, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. Bake on one side of the sheet pan for ten minutes. Meanwhile, slice the mozzarella ball into four equal rounds. Then cut the grape tomatoes into quarters and place them into a bowl. Add the garlic, chopped basil, olive oil, and 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar. Toss well, then season with salt and pepper to taste. After ten minutes, flip the chicken over and lay a thick slice of fresh mozzarella cheese over each chicken breast. Spread the asparagus out on the empty side of the sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. Put the sheet pan back in the oven for another 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top the chicken with the bruschetta tomato mixture. Serve with a side of roasted asparagus and enjoy!
