Ingredients

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (divided)
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp black pepper
3 cloves garlic (crushed)
2 tbsp fresh basil (chopped)
2 chicken breasts (1/2 lb each)
2 large zucchinis (spiralized into app. 4 cups zoodles)
3 roma tomatoes (chopped)
¼ cup red onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp fresh basil (chopped)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

Combine all of the tomato basil bruschetta ingredients in a medium bowl.
Place in the refrigerator until ready to serve the bowls.
Combine 2 tbsp olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sea salt, black pepper, garlic and basil.
Add to a large plastic bag with the chicken and marinate for up to 8 hours, I would recommend at least an hour.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on a grill over medium heat for 10-12 minutes per side.
While the chicken is grilling, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to a large skillet, then add the zucchini noodles and saute 3-5 minutes.
Divide the zucchini noodles between two bowls.
Once the chicken is grilled, slice it up and place on top of the zoodles.
Spoon the bruschetta over the chicken and zoodles.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, (approximately 1 1/2 lbs)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice, (freshly squeezed)
1 1/2 tsp salt, (more or less, to taste)
1/2 tsp pepper, (more or less, to taste)
1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1-2 tbsp olive oil (for sauteeing chicken)
6 roma tomatoes, (stem removed and sliced, remove seeds if preferred)
2 tbsp lemon juice, (freshly squeezed)
1/3 cup chopped red onion
2 cloves garlic
1/4 tsp salt, (more or less, to taste)
1/8 tsp pepper, (more or less, to taste)
10-12 basil leaves, (roughly chopped)
4 oz fresh mozzarella ball, (sliced into 4 slices)
1 tsp minced garlic
4 large zucchini, (spiralized)
Freshly chopped basil
Lemon wedges
Balsamic glaze

Steps:

Combine all ingredients for the marinade into a large ziploc bag (or bowl). Add the chicken, seal the bag and toss to thoroughly coat.Allow to marinade for at least 15 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, combine all of the ingredients for the bruschetta topping. Gently toss to combine. Spiralize the zucchini into zoodles.Set both aside.
Place a large grill pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and then add the chicken (discarding any leftover marinade).Grill/cook 3-4 minutes and flip to cook 3-4 minutes on the other side. Top with the mozzarella cheese, allowing time for it to melt.Cook chicken until the internal temperature of the thickest part reads 165 degrees F using a meat thermometer. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
Place the same pan back over medium-high heat. Add the teaspoon of minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Add the zoodles and saute for 2-3 minutes, stirring a few times.
Saute until the zoodles just begin to soften. Create a small space to return the chicken breasts to the pan to re-warm.
Top each chicken breast with the bruschetta topping and remove from heat. Serve garnished with a drizzle of balsamic glaze, additional basil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and parmesan cheese.Top dishes off with any leftover bruschetta for extra flavor!
