Notes
- Glaze. The balsamic glaze is NOT calculated in the nutrition facts.
- Chicken. Tenderize the chicken before cooking for the best results.
- Tomatoes. Campari tomatoes make the most flavorful bruschetta.
- Storage. Keep this bruschetta chicken and asparagus in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days. It's best if you keep the bruschetta topping separate from the chicken and asparagus.
- Freezing. The chicken can be safely frozen for up to 4 to 6 months. Do not freeze the bruschetta, it will not thaw correctly.
