Baked Chicken Bruschetta

Baked Chicken Bruschetta is a marvelous entree your whole family will love. It’s not too difficult to make and it’s made with wholesome ingredients. It tastes succulent and amazing. It’s perfect for special occasions like Easter, Mother’s Day or Father’s Day. It’s also terrific for regular family meals. Especially when you want to spoil your family with a fantastic chicken entree.

First, the chicken is marinated in a sun-dried tomato and garlic vinaigrette-type salad dressing. It can be marinated for 24-48 hours. (That’s what makes the chicken so moist). Then the chicken is baked with the marinade. While it’s cooking make up a quick homemade bruschetta. It consists of tomatoes, roasted garlic, basil, sun-dried tomato salad dressing, mozzarella cheese, and salt and pepper (if desired). Once the chicken is finished baking, slather the bruschetta on each chicken breast. Bake about 5-10 minutes longer until the mozzarella cheese melts a little. Oh, my, this chicken is heavenly!

I was looking all over Pinterest last week for a Chicken Bruschetta recipe. I wanted the bruschetta was actually cooked on top of the chicken. Not merely applied cold to the chicken. I also wanted the chicken baked rather than grilled. The recipe I found here actually grilled the chicken. But then it was put in the oven to bake the bruschetta topping.

I decided to simplify the recipe and bake the chicken as well as bake the topping on it afterwards. We were really pleased with the way this recipe turned out. Fresh basil and real roasted garlic really makes this chicken entree flavorful. Mozzarella cheese, as always, adds that delicate savory touch. This recipe turned out quite succulent and delectable.

Those of you who follow my blog know how much I love tomatoes. I can’t get enough of them. I would eat tomato sauces or tomatoes cooked in something almost every day! For those of you who have a bumper crop of tomatoes, this is a great way to consider using them up. The nice thing about tomatoes is that you can pretty much get them year round. They certainly don’t look near as bad in the grocery stores in winter months like they used to about 20-30 years ago!

For those of you who like bruschetta on toasted artisan breads, you will love it on chicken as well. Another thing I liked about this recipe is it’s pretty clean and healthy. I used an organic  sun-dried tomato & garlic vinaigrette without preservatives, MSG, fillers, high fructose corn syrup or sugar. It also used wholesome products. It’s really hard finding healthy salad dressings in the grocery store these days. I found this bottle at Sprouts which is similar to Whole Foods Market or Trader Joe’s. Baked Chicken Bruschetta is also low calorie and gluten free. If you need dairy free, you can substitute vegan cheese for the mozzarella in the recipe.

This is a great tasting Chicken Bruschetta recipe. If you don’t have time to watch a grill, this recipe is so quick and easy. You marinade the chicken, then pop it in the oven to bake for about 45-60 minutes. (Depending on how thick your chicken breasts are). Afterwards, you spread the bruschetta topping over top. Then bake it a few more minutes. That’s all there is to it. This is one of the easiest recipes you can imagine. I’m sure it would be tasty on pork chops or turkey cutlets as well. The flavors of this chicken dish are amazing. Although I have to admit, I could have eaten a bowl full of the bruschetta topping alone! 🙂

I initially posted this recipe in November 2013. I recently remade the recipe (March 2019) and took a few new photos. I made this for our Friday night care group. Without exception, everyone loved the recipe. They exclaimed at how moist the chicken was and wanted the recipe! That’s always a good sign. This is one of those easy weeknight chicken recipes we can never get enough of. It’s absolutely mouthwatering. I served it with Seasoned Mashed Potatoes, Balsamic Yellow Squash Bake and Raisin Spice Bars. Everything was so yummy. 🙂

Equipment

  • 1 9x13" glass baking dish
  • 1 small mixing bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 2 tomatoes diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese or more, if desired
  • 4-6 cloves garlic roasted & minced (or use one whole bulb roasted garlic, if desired)
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil chopped (or one teaspoon dried basil)
  • 1 tsp. Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup sun-dried tomato salad dressing divided use

Instructions
 

  • Place chicken in plastic bowl or ziplock bag with ½ cup sun-dried tomato salad dressing and marinate 24 to 48 hours.
  • Remove chicken and place in 9x13” glass baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Pour any remaining marinade over top of the chicken.

Notes

NOTE: The traditional way to roast a whole garlic bulb is to place it in a small baking dish. Cut off  about one-half inch from the top of the garlic bulb. Drizzle very lightly with olive oil.  Then roast the garlic at 350 to 400 degrees for approximately half an hour. Allow bulb to cool, then remove the garlic skins and push out the garlic onto a plate. Use as needed in recipe.
