Bruschetta Chicken

Bruschetta Chicken

This is a nice light, fresh meal that is easy to prepare! I love the chilled bruschetta topping on the warm grilled chicken cutlet with the melted mozzarella on top. I know I'll also be using this bruschetta recipe on toasted slices of Italian bread!
 This recipe is posted on Allrecipes.com  by the Mazola Cooking Oil Company Take a look at their site *here* for more delicious, light recipes!

I've been cooking with Mazola oil from day one because I know the quality of their product is top notch. And they have quite a few oil varieties to choose from, such as canola, vegetable plus and even pure olive oils! Now that I know Mazola also has a great selection of recipes, I'll have to visit their site more often!
