Chicken Caprese Salad




I love Chicken Caprese anything! I even love the Caprese part without chicken, I have made it into a sandwich. Below is what you will need for this delish salad!

Ingredients:
1/2lb spicy marinated bocconcini (mozzarella balls), plus the oil from the container
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pound to about 1/2" thick
salt
pepper
1 pint heirloom cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
evoo (for grilling)


Directions:
Pick the bocconcini out of the marinade. Transfer half of the marinade to a medium baking dish. Add the chicken, season with the salt and pepper and let stand at room temp for 1 hour or put it in the fridge for 4 hours.

Quarter the bocconcini and transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining marinade and the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.

Get your grill ready and oil the grate. Grill the chicken over high heat, turning once, until lightly charred and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and add the bocconcini.

Toss and serve

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
