Skillet Bruschetta Chicken Dinner
I promise I haven’t lost my mind posting salad dressing earlier this week. Random, yes. But there was a reason! Though it dresses up salads to the nines (ha!), homemade Italian dressing truly shines as a marinade. All those zesty herb seasonings infuse into chicken and when paired with fresh ingredients like tomatoes and basil, it’s something miraculous on your dinner table.
Ladies and gents, let me present you with my all time favorite satisfying and light bruschetta chicken dinner. It’s so easy, so healthy, so regular and yet– so scrumptiously delicious. Dinner-party-esque, without all the work. That’s my style.
And bonus: if you have a spiralizer, serve the bruschetta chicken over zoodles. And make sure you say zoodles 100x times out loud because it’s the most fun word ever and because that’s our style, you and me.
My husband and I are so blessed to have all of our immediate siblings (I have four brothers and a sister!), a grandmother, a few cousins, aunts and uncles, and parents all in Texas.
And all of these family members are within 3 hours of driving!
A few weeks ago Cohl and I had our younger cousin Mackenzie over for dinner. She is quite the foodie, and we are normally gabbing constantly about the newest Trader Joe’s finds or recipes we have tried out and loved.
So for dinner that night I decided to spring something new on both her and Cohl… this Bruschetta Chicken recipe!

Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts, cut in half
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 ½ tablespoons Brummel & Brown Organic Buttery Yogurt Spread
- 2 teaspoons dried minced garlic
- 4 slices whole-milk mozzarella
- 1 ½ cups diced roma tomatoes
- 1/3 cup diced red onion
- ½ cup fresh basil, chopped
- ¼ cup feta cheese
- ¼ cup balsamic glaze, divided
Instructions
- Pat dry the chicken breasts, then generously rub with the Italian seasoning and salt.
- In a large cast iron skillet over medium heat, melt the Brummel & Brown Organic Buttery Yogurt Spread with the garlic. Add the chicken breast and cook until the bottom is browned, around 5 minutes. Flip the chicken, reduce heat to medium-low, and top each breast with a slice of mozzarella. Continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest portion of the breast reads 165 degrees. Remove pan from heat and let sit for five minutes.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, basil, and feta. Top each chicken breast with a heaping portion of the bruschetta, then drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.
