Best Recipe for Broiled Chicken, Romaine, and Tomato Bruschetta
Ingredients
- 1 (1/2-inch-thick) center slice from a round Italian loaf of bread
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil plus additional for brushing
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 1 chicken cutlet (about 1/4 inch thick)
- 1 plum tomato, halved lengthwise
- 1/4 teaspoon herbes de Provence or dried thyme
- 1/4 head romaine (quarter head lengthwise), tough outer leaves removed and root end kept intact
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, halved crosswise
Instructions
- Preheat broiler.
- Brush both sides of bread with oil, then put bread on a large baking sheet.
- Stir together mayonnaise, mustard, cheese, and zest in a small bowl, then coat top of cutlet with about 2 tablespoons sauce, reserving remaining sauce. Transfer chicken to baking sheet.
- Brush cut sides of tomato with oil and season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with herbes de Provence. Transfer to baking sheet.
- Toss romaine with 1 tablespoon oil, lemon juice, and 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a bowl until coated. Transfer to baking sheet.
- Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat until bread is golden-brown, about 2 minutes. Turn bread and continue broiling until browned, about 2 minutes. Remove toast from broiler and continue broiling until romaine is wilted and well browned in spots, chicken is just cooked through, and tomato is lightly browned, 1 to 4 minutes more (remove romaine, chicken, and tomato as done).
- Rub toast with cut side of garlic (reserve other 1/2 clove for another use). Top garlic toast with chicken, lettuce, and tomato. Serve with remaining sauce.
