Steps:
- Preheat a grill to high. Puree the plum tomato, sun-dried tomatoes, vinegar, garlic, oregano, a few basil leaves and 2 tablespoons parmesan in a blender, drizzling in the sun-dried tomato oil until smooth. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons water, if needed; season with salt and pepper.
- Halve the chicken breasts horizontally to make four 1/4-inch-thick cutlets. Brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken until marked on the bottom, about 4 minutes, then turn and grill until cooked through, about 3 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breadcrumbs, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon parmesan and the parsley and cook until toasted, about 1 more minute.
- Toss the salad greens and remaining basil in a large bowl. Cut the chicken into pieces and add to the greens along with the mozzarella. Toss with the dressing, then sprinkle with the breadcrumb mixture.
GRILLED MINI CHICKEN BALL SALAD WITH OVEN-DRIED TOMATOES
Steps:
- Prepare a hot grill. Soak wooden skewers for 5 minutes to prevent them from burning.
- Skewer each ball in the center using 3 balls per skewer. Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook, turning them so that the balls are hot and charred on all sides, for about 5 minutes total.
- Meanwhile, combine the watercress, cherry tomatoes, beans, and onions in a large bowl. Dress with the apple cider vinaigrette, making sure to lightly toss the salad mixture but thoroughly incorporate the dressing.
- Transfer the salad to a large platter or individual bowls and top with the hot chicken balls.
- Oven-Dried Cherry Tomatoes
- Preheat the oven to 275°F.
- Combine the cherry tomatoes, thyme, garlic, salt, and olive oil in a large mixing bowl and toss to thoroughly coat the tomatoes.
- Spread out the tomatoes on a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the tomatoes are shriveled and sweet but not browned, about 1 1/2 hours. Rotate the pan every 30 minutes for even cooking.
