Kathy's Notes:

This chicken Bruschetta is perfect for a light meal or an elegant shower!

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

This Lime Olive Salsa is so very good and offsets the flavorful chicken perfectly!

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 35o degrees. Lightly spray an indoor grill or skillet. Turn burner to medium low.

If chicken is not thin enough pound it on each side to flatten some more. Rub olive oil on each side of chicken. Sprinkle tuscan perfect pinch on each side of chicken and place in hot skillet . Cook on each side until no longer pink.

While chicken cooks prepare the salsa!

In a medium bowl add the diced bell pepper, green onion, tomato, pimento sliced olives, 1 talbespoon olive jucie from jar, 1 slice the lime in half and sqeeze juice into the bowl from both halves. Add the salt and pepper and mix well! Set in fridge until ready to use.

Remove chicken from skillet. Place 3 slices of Texas Toast on a cookie sheet and place in oven until hot! Lay a piece of chicken on each piece of bread. Top chicken with a slice of pepper jack cheese. Place back in oven until cheese is melted.

Put each Tuscan Chicken Bruschetta onto plates. Add Lime Olive Salsa to top of each one, a generous amount! Enjoy!!!

For an elegant shower or party cut into bit size piece and add salsa to top!

Any suggestions for a flavorful substitute for the green olives? Recipe sounds wonderful but try as I might, I simply cannot abide olives, green or black!

Where do you find "Tuscan Perfect Pinch"? Is that the brand name?

And congratulations on the blue ribbon.

It's a seasoning by McCormick, called Perfect Pinch. Flavor is Tuscan..:)
