Tomato grilled chicken is a very delicious, healthy and easy one pot dish. I have chosen chicken breasts to prepare this grilled dish, as they are the best known source of lean protein. Also chicken breasts contains various nutrients that boost our immune system, improves heart health and provides more energy. The boneless, skinless chicken breasts from Licious is perfect for this recipe. Tomato grilled chicken, as the name suggests, is a grilled recipe. So no frying is involved. Only a spoon of oil, that too a healthier option, is used for the dish. The juices that ooze out from tomatoes, onion and chicken is all that is required for the cooking. So the flavors are all locked in itself. So check out the recipe on how to make this healthy dish that won't consume much of your time. Just mix in all the ingredients and arrange the chicken pieces for the grill and there you have, your flavorsome tomato grilled chicken.
