B.B.C.T.R.W.S.

Can ya' say Y.U.M.

Today at work I had some downtime and decided to come up with something yummy for dinner in my head. I thought about what we had in the fridge and pantry and ended up with this, Baked Bruschetta Chicken with a Tomato Red Wine Sauce (B.B.C.T.R.W.S.) Ok, cool... That sounds really good. Now what?

When I got home from work today, I got to work on dinner! This was rather awkward considering the AT&T UVERSE repair man was here AGAIN. I guess were like family now since he's here so often. Maybe I should've invited him to join us?

Anywho, back to the Baked Bruschetta Chicken with a Tomato Red Wine Sauce (officially the longest recipe title in existence). 






- 2 Cloves Minced Garlic
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 3/4 cup halved Cherry tomatoes
- Red Wine
- One boneless skinless chicken breast

- Italian Bread Crumbs
- One average size tomato
- Freshly grated Parmesean (we buy huge wedges from Costco & they last forever!)






Step One:

Sauté two cloves of minced garlic in EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) in a medium sauce pan until fragrant.

Step Two:

Add 3/4 cup halved Cherry Tomatoes to the pan and let simmer for a couple of minutes... Add a splash of the red wine of your choice and allow it to cook down.

Step Three:

Once the wine has cooked down and the tomatoes are soft, add a couple teaspoons of flour to thicken the sauce and stir to combine.

Step Four:

Add one piece of boneless skinless chicken breast into the pan and allow it to cook for just 30 seconds to a minute on both sides. Add chicken and sauce to a small casserole dish (preferably with the tomatoes on the sides and top). Cover with three thinly sliced tomato rounds, freshly grated parmesan and basil.

Step Five:

Bake at 350 degrees for 18 minutes. Once the 18 minutes is up, cover the chicken breast with Italian bread crumbs and broil on high for 2-4 minutes or until brown.

Step Six:

EAT! Once you serve the chicken, there will be sauce left in the pan . Use a spoon and pour all the yumminess over the chicken breasts.

Enjoy!
