Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 3 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 6 8x8-inch squares of heavy duty aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  2. Place the chicken breast halves between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Brush each chicken breast with olive oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of garlic salt.
  3. Grill the chicken breasts on the preheated grill until the meat is no longer pink inside and the chicken has good grill marks, 5 to 8 minutes per side. Move chicken to a cooler part of the grill to keep warm.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, mix together the tomatoes, basil, green onions, garlic, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice in a bowl.
  5. Place an 8-inch square piece of aluminum foil onto the grill, and move a cooked chicken breast onto the foil. Top the chicken breast with about 1/4 cup of the tomato mixture, and sprinkle the topping with about 2 teaspoons of Parmesan cheese. Repeat for the other pieces of chicken.
  6. Close the lid on the grill, and grill the chicken breasts until the topping is hot, 2 to 3 more minutes.
