Description

A delicious and refreshing Strawberry Chicken recipe featuring grilled chicken breasts topped with a vibrant mix of diced strawberries, fresh mozzarella, basil, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. This dish combines savory and sweet flavors perfect for a light and elegant meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 skinless boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon McCormick Garlic & Herb Seasoning

Strawberry Topping

  • 1 pint strawberries, stems removed and diced
  • ½ cup fresh mozzarella cheese, diced
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, chiffonade
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Balsamic glaze for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill on high heat to prepare for cooking the chicken evenly and quickly.
  2. Prepare the chicken: Rinse and pat dry the chicken breasts. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season evenly with McCormick Garlic & Herb Seasoning. Set aside to let the flavors absorb.
  3. Prepare the strawberry topping: Rinse, remove stems, and dice the strawberries then place them in a bowl. Add diced fresh mozzarella cheese and chiffonade basil leaves. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil on top and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. Grill the chicken: Reduce grill heat to low and grill chicken breasts for 15 minutes, turning once halfway through until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes to retain juices.
  5. Assemble and serve: Place grilled chicken breasts on a serving platter. Top each with a generous spoonful of the strawberry mozzarella topping and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Serve immediately for the freshest taste.

Notes

  • Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F for safety.
  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Chiffonade basil by stacking leaves, rolling tightly, and thinly slicing to release aroma.
  • Balsamic glaze can be store-bought or homemade by reducing balsamic vinegar until thickened.
  • Let the chicken rest after grilling to keep it tender and juicy.
