Chicken caprese salad
To make 4 servings of my Chicken Caprese Salad you will need:
Fresh Tomatoes - 3 cups sliced to bite-size
Fresh Basil Leaves - 1/2 cup torn up a bit
Mozzarella - 1 cup bite-size
Balsamic Vinegar - 2 Cups
Fresh Arugula - 4 cups
Chicken - 1-2 lb
Olive Oil - 1/2-1 Cup
Salt&Pepper - 3 teaspoons each
Season chicken with plenty salt&pepper then lay the chicken in a hot cast iron with some olive oil. Cook over medium heat until done, when internal temperature is 160-165*F. Let chicken rest on a plate.
Reduce balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over low heat until it is reduced to 1/2 Cup.
Slice tomatoes into bite-sized morsels.
Tear basil leaves to release aroma and make them more bite-sized.
Gently toss tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella with olive oil, salt&pepper.
When balsamic vinegar is reduced to a thickened glaze whisk in 1/2-1 Cup olive oil and salt&pepper.
Serve Caprese and chicken over a bed of arugula drizzled with balsamic glaze dressing.
