  3. Prepare the bruschetta topping by sprinkling diced tomatoes with salt and letting them sit in a sieve for 10 minutes to drain excess liquid.
  4. Combine drained tomatoes with red onion, garlic, pepper, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and basil in a bowl and set aside.
  5. Preheat the grill to 375ºF and remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off.
  6. Grill chicken over direct heat for 4 minutes on each side, then move to indirect heat for an additional 10 minutes.
  7. When chicken reaches 155ºF – 160ºF, place mozzarella slices on top and grill until melted and chicken reaches 165ºF.
  8. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving topped with bruschetta and drizzled with balsamic reduction.
