Cooking Steps
-
Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sea salt, black pepper, crushed garlic, and chopped basil. Place the chicken breast in the marinade, ensuring it's well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Prepare the Bruschetta Topping: In a separate bowl, combine chopped roma tomato, red onion, minced garlic, chopped basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
-
Grill the Chicken: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
-
Sauté the Zoodles: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the spiralized zucchini noodles, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 3-5 minutes until tender but not mushy.
-
Assemble the Bowl: Place the sautéed zoodles in a bowl, top with sliced grilled chicken, and spoon the bruschetta mixture over the top. Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese if desired.
