Ingredients

6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 bottle Italian salad dressing, for marinade (or your favorite healthy marinade)
2 cups Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
½ cup green onions, chopped
6 mozzarella cheese slices
1 can sliced black olives (optional)

Directions

Tap a step to mark it done.

Marinate the chicken in about ¼ of the dressing (enough to coat); refrigerate several hours or overnight.
Grill the chicken thoroughly and evenly.
Just before removing from the heat, top each breast with a cheese slice and let it melt.
Move to a platter and top with the chopped tomato and green onion (and olives, if using). Serve immediately.

Note. A homemade vinaigrette works well as the marinade. See the NuStart dressings guide.

Ingredient tip. When a recipe uses a packaged or processed food, choose a version with five or fewer ingredients on the label.
