Bruschetta Chicken


For the chicken:
1 pound thin cut boneless skinless chicken breasts
 1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon pepper

 For the bruschetta topping:
1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup thinly sliced basil leaves
salt and pepper to taste

 Place the olive oil, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper in a resealable bag. Add the chicken and seal the bag. Shake to coat evenly. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until done. While the chicken is cooking, make the bruschetta topping. In a medium bowl mix together the tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, basil and salt and pepper to taste. Let stand for 10 minutes. Remove chicken from the grill, top with bruschetta and serve immediately.
