Grilled Chicken Breasts
with Fresh Tomatoes


chicken


Tender

This Grilled Chicken Breasts recipe works best with fresh vegetables. The rustic flavor of tomatoes, basil, mushrooms and onions blend very well with the natural juice of the chicken.

You can use many varieties of tomatoes for this recipe. I prefer using Roma tomatoes because of their meaty flesh and great flavor. In this recipe I just cook the tomatoes until they are heated through. You don’t want to cook them to the point where they fall apart. Of course if you have access to fresh San Marzano tomatoes then use them instead.

The Chicken Breasts can be seasoned with salt and pepper and either fried or broiled, but the flavor of grilled chicken tastes the best with the fresh tomatoes. Enjoy!

  • Prepare the grill
