  • Ingredients:
  • 1 plum tomato, halved
  • 4 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, plus 2 tablespoons oil from the jar
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 bunch fresh basil, torn
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 8 cups Italian-blend salad greens or baby arugula (I used baby spinach)
  • 8 ounces bocconcini (small mozzarella balls), quartered

Directions

  1. Directions:
  2. 1. Preheat a grill to high. Puree the plum tomato, sun-dried tomatoes, vinegar, garlic, oregano, a few basil leaves and 2 tablespoons Parmesan in a blender, drizzling in the sun-dried tomato oil until smooth. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons water, if needed; season with salt and pepper.
  3. 2. Halve the chicken breasts horizontally to make four 1/4-inch-thick cutlets. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with slat and pepper. Grill the chicken until marked on the bottom, about 4 minutes, then turn and grill until cooked through, about 3 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
  4. 3. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breadcrumbs, season with slat and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon Parmesan and the parsley and cook until toasted, about 1 more minute.
  5. 4. Toss the salad greens and remaining basil in a large bowl. cut the chicken into pieces and add to the greens along with the mozzarella. Toss with the dressing, then sprinkle with the breadcrumb mixture.
