- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices mozzarella cheese
for the bruschetta:

Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl combine oil, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper. Add the chicken and coat evenly.
- Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
