- 2 cups chopped tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped yellow onion
- Fresh cilantro, chopped
- Fresh juice from a lemon

Directions
1.) Make your bruschetta mixture first by adding your chopped tomatoes, onions, and cilantro to a bowl. Squeeze lemon over the top. Mix and season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2.) Spray a pan with non-stick spray and place your chicken tenders in the pan. Pour the balsamic vinegar over the chicken.
3.) Cook the chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear.
4.) Top each tender with ½ oz of mozzarella cheese, turn heat to low, cover, and let the cheese melt ~2-3 min. Remove from heat.
5.) Top each tender with some of the tomato mixture. Serve warm.
