How to prepare Bruschetta Park Chicken:

1   To make Bruschetta Chicken, Start by whisking together oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl. Then, place the chicken in a large re-sealable bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavours to meld together.

2   Add the chicken to the grill, making sure to discard any excess marinade. Grill the chicken until it is charred and cooked to an internal temperature of 155°-160°, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes per side.

3  Start by grilling chicken breasts until they are cooked through. While the chicken is cooking, mix chopped tomatoes, minced garlic, fresh basil, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Once the chicken is almost done, place a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of each breast and cover the grill until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Finally, top the chicken with the tomato mixture for a fresh and flavourful meal.

4   Finally, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve hot.

How do I keep the chicken from sticking on the grill?

1  “Grilling chicken can be tricky, as it tends to stick to the grill. To prevent this, make sure your grill is well-oiled before cooking. You can also marinate the chicken beforehand, which will help create a layer of oil and prevent sticking.

As the chicken cooks, it should naturally release from the grill surface and develop flavourful char marks. If it doesn’t release easily when you try to flip it, it’s not ready yet.
