[I use recipes for inspiration but rarely follow one. I wanted to start keeping track of good culinary inventions for future reference and to have an easier way to pass them along to my family and friends. I also feel like cooking is an art not a science but anyone can learn. Enjoy.]

Summery.Italian.Chicken
This is a GREAT dish. It was inspired based on two things:
1. This amazing chicken sandwich my sister Dani made over mother's day weekend
2. This amazing chicken sandwich I had at a little cafe in New York down the street from Magnolia Bakery
[All you need:]
Grilled chicken
Fresh mozzarella cheese
Jar of sun-dried tomatoes
Jar of roasted red peppers
Clove of garlic
Basil, small handful, chopped
Garlic salt
Grill chicken. Take a forkful of the sun-dried tomatoes and a forkful of the roasted red peppers from the jars and chop into small pieces. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat one clove of chopped garlic. Add the peppers and tomatoes. Sprinkle with garlic salt. Warm through.
Slice chicken. Cut two slices of mozzarella, then cut in half and layed on top of chicken. Top with pepper/tomato mixture. Then sprinkle wi thbasil.
Simply delicious. A good italian twist but still fairly light. Would be wonderful on toasted ciabiatta bread if desired --- but also just great with a knife and a fork!
