🍅 Grilling Series S2. Ep. 13: Chicken Caprese | this grilled chicken caprese is bright, it’s sweet, and it’s loaded with flavor. I mean who wouldn’t like perfectly charred grilled chicken topped with a caprese salad of heirloom cherry tomatoes and fresh mozzarella? 

🐓 Chicken 
2lbs chicken breast 
1/4 cup white wine vinegar 
1/4 cup EVOO
1/2 tbsp dried oregano
1/2 tbsp dried basil
1/2 tbsp dried thyme 
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 
1 tbsp Dijon mustard 
1 tbsp honey 
1 lemon, zested and juiced 
3 garlic cloves, grated 
Salt & Pepper 

🍅 Caprese 
8oz tomatoes 
8oz fresh mozzarella 
Basil
Balsamic
EVOO
Salt 

🍽️ To finish 
More basil, as needed 
Balsamic glaze for garnish 

Mix all the chicken marinade ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and mix until fully coated. Then let the chicken marinade for 1 hour. 

Add the tomatoes and fresh mozzarella to a bowl. You want to cut them about the same size. Then add add as much basil as your heart desires. 

Season to taste with salt, balsamic vinegar, and EVOO. Then mix until combined and set aside in the fridge. 

Heat your grill over high heat, and spray with non-stick spray. Cook until the chicken reaches desired temp. 

Plate the chicken, top with the caprese, balsamic glaze, and more basil.
