Grilled Bruschetta Chicken


This chicken has been on my mind ever since I fixed it a few days ago. Oh my gah.   It had so much flavor!!!  I love grilling chicken and this recipe was the bomb.  Adapted from BlogChef.net.


4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Rub
2 tbsp brown sugar
juice of 1 lime
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper

Glaze
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tsp oregano
4 tbsp brown sugar

Bruschetta
6 roma tomatoes (diced)
2 garlic cloves (minced)
3 tbsp olive oil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp fresh chopped basil
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Combine all the ingredients for the rub together and rub down the chicken.  Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.  In a bowl combine all the ingredients for the bruschetta topping and place in the refrigerator.  Right before grilling, whisk together all the ingredients for the glaze. Once the chicken has marinated for an hour, remove from the refrigerator and place on the grill over medium high heat.   When the chicken is almost done start brushing it with the glaze. Once the chicken is cooked through, top with the mozzarella and remove from the grill once the cheese has melted.  Top with the bruschetta topping and serve.
