Cooking on the Internet: Bruschetta Chicken Bake

This week I've chosen another recipe from Kraftfoods.com (how can I resist recipes that involve so much cheese?), the Bruschetta Chicken Bake.


Ingredients:

1 can of diced tomatoes, undrained

1 package of Stove Top Stuffing Mix for Chicken

1/2 cup of water

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 tsp. dried basil leaves

1 cup 2% Milk Shredded Mozzarella Cheese


First things first, heat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (you don't have to do this right now, and I sure didn't do it first, but then you have to wait for the stupid bastard oven to heat up, and who the fuck wants to do that?). Did you heat your oven? Great, now it's time to do some prep work!


Next mince the garlic (which you may have already done, since the ingredients say that the cloves should be minced, so me telling you to mince the garlic is kind of redundant), open the can of diced tomatoes and the package of stuffing and put all that stuff in a big ol' bowl along with the water. Now mix it. Mix it good (well, until the stuffing mix is "moistened").



Now that your stuffing is mixed, put the chicken into your casserole or baking dish. Now sprinkle the basil on it (I also put salt, pepper and oregano on at the request of my mother, but it is not in the original recipe and I'm pretty sure the Kraft Kitchen Gods are mad at me for doing it). Then comes the CHEESE!!!!!! CHEESE!!! GLORIOUS, WONDERFUL, MOTHERFUCKING CHEESE!!!!!!!!!!



OK, so now you've got your cheese on there, get your stuffing/tomatoes/garlic mix and layer it on there. After this I put on more cheese, but I am a cheese whore.



Now that that's done, stick it in the oven and cook it until the chicken is done (the recipe says 30 minutes). Then you end up with this gorgeous thing:

It tastes pretty good too. Kind of pizza-y.
