Bruschetta Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, add the tomatoes, garlic, basil, vinegar, olive oil, cheese, salt and pepper.
• Mix thoroughly and let sit for at least 15 minutes at room temperature to let the flavors marinate.
• Slice the bread into individual pieces and spoon the mixture on top.

Steps:

• In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir, lightly frying for about a minute, removing before the garlic gets too brown (it can be golden). Pour the garlic and oil into a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.
• Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don't over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.
• Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they're nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.
• To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.

Steps:

• In a bowl, toss together the tomatoes, basil, Parmesan cheese, and garlic. Mix in the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, kosher salt, and pepper. Serve on toasted bread slices.

Steps:

• Core and chop the tomatoes, then transfer to a colander over a bowl or in the sink. Add the salt and gently stir. Let drain for up to 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the garlic oil: In a small saucepan, warm the olive oil and garlic over low heat until the garlic is softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes, making sure the garlic doesn't brown. Set aside to cool.
• Roll the basil leaves up and thinly slice crosswise.
• When the oil is cool and the tomatoes are well drained, combine the tomatoes, garlic oil and basil in a medium bowl. Season with additional salt, to taste. Spoon over toasted bread.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Stir in the basil, garlic powder, onion salt and tomato. Season with pepper to taste. Allow to sit for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken into egg, shake off the excess and then press into the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
• Heat the vegetable oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and it has a golden brown color. Reduce heat to low.
• Spoon the bruschetta over the chicken. Top with mozzarella cheese. Cover the chicken just long enough for the cheese to melt.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat broiler.
• Place bread slices in single layer on baking sheet. Broil 2 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides.
• Mix dressing and cheese until blended. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing mixture; brush remaining dressing mixture onto toast slices.
• Combine tomatoes, onions and reserved dressing mixture; spoon onto toast slices just before serving.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, garlic and basil, taste and add salt and pepper- cover and chill for about 2 hours.
• Take baguette slices, place on cookie sheet and broil until lightly brown.
• Turn and allow other side to brown.
• While still warm, rub garlic clove on surface of toast.
• Spoon tomato mixture on toast.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the onions, tomatoes, garlic and basil, taking care not to mash or break up the tomatoes too much. Add the balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix again. Cover and chill for at least an hour. This will allow the flavours to soak and blend together.
• Slice the baguette loaf diagonally into 12 thick slices and lightly toast them until they are light brown on both sides. Serve the mixture on the warm slices of bread. If you prefer the mixture at room temperature, remove from the fridge half an hour before serving.
