SUN-DRIED TOMATO BRUSCHETTA WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Slice your bread, if you have not done so already; place them on a baking sheet which you have lined with aluminum foil (just in case something falls off and tries to burn).
• Place the bread under the broiler and toast until light golden; remove.
• Turn the bread over, place the bread under the broiler and toast just until the bread firms slightly but not golden yet; remove.
• Brush the lighter side with olive oil (you may decline this if you are using tomatoes packed in oil, but it's your choice).
• On top of that lay out some basil leaves to cover the top of the bread.
• Mince the sun-dried tomatoes and sprinkle on top of the basil; I use regular dried on mine that are still pliant like raisins; if yours are hard you may need to have soaked them in warm water in advance and squeezed dry then mince; but you can do that now, no biggie.
• On top of the tomatoes sprinkle a generous amount of goat cheese and tap down so it doesn't fall off.
• If you like you can add a pinch of sea salt but I didn't.
• Place the bruschettas under the broiler and toast just until the cheese starts to soften and the edges get nice and brown; serve.

SUN DRIED TOMATO BRUSCHETTA CHICKEN WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat.
• Meanwhile, fill a large 12-quart pot with water, cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Drizzle 1 Tbsp olive oil into skillet, immediately add chicken breast. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 3-5 minutes on each side until cooked through.
• While chicken cooks, prepare basil and mozzarella cheese. Chop both into bite size pieces. Drain diced tomatoes into a cup and reserve liquid. In a medium size bowl combine diced tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, basil and ½ of mozzarella cheese. Stir to combine.
• Add a small handful of salt to boiling pasta water. Cook pasta to al dente; meaning it still has a little bite to it (approximately 8-10 minutes).
• Once chicken is cooked, add tomato liquid to pan. Spoon the tomato cheese mixture over the chicken breasts. Cover and reduce to simmer.
• Drain pasta and return to the hot pan. Drizzle pasta with remaining olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary. Toss to combine.
• Place pasta and chicken on plate or platter, sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese over top and garnish with basil and sun-dried tomato if desired.
