Tossed Chicken Caprese Salad
We love Caprese Salad and tonight we had half of a leftover rotisserie chicken in the fridge so it became Tossed Chicken Caprese Salad. Gammy has to eat gluten free so it fit just fine.
Instead of the usual sliced style you could go for tossed so it could accommodate the chicken easier. So, cut up the chicken, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, fresh basil and that extra red stuff that you see in the pic is roasted red peppers. Yeah, I made a batch yesterday and we like them a lot so, what the hell?
Put it all together, drizzle some good extra virgin olive oil, basalmic vinegar, a pinch of salt.
Top it off with a few “unchopped” basil leaves and some grated parmesan cheese. It was real good and it was totally gluten free for Gammy.Enjoy your Tossed Chicken Caprese Salad. You deserve an easy and fast dinner that is delish!
