Paleo Bruschetta Chicken
This Paleo Bruschetta Chicken is easy to make with minimal ingredients and prep while also being packed with delicious fresh flavors. It comes together with a simple seasoning on the grilled chicken and homemade bruschetta and balsamic glaze. Everything is made with real, whole foods and takes less than 30 minutes total.
Bruschetta
What you’ll need:
- tomatoes (any kind, I like to do half beefsteak and half cherry)
- garlic cloves
- extra virgin olive oil
- balsamic vinegar (check ingredients for compliance with the paleo diet)
- fresh basil
- salt & pepper
This bruschetta is so easy and also perfect for an appetizer outside of this recipe!
Honey Balsamic Glaze
What you’ll need:
- balsamic vinegar (check ingredients for compliance with the paleo diet)

You can, of course, opt for store bought balsamic glaze here, however it may not be compatible with a paleo diet. You can also seek out a Whole30 compliant balsamic glaze recipe to make this dish compliant with the program, or you can skip the glaze and just use a drizzle of balsamic vinegar!

Ingredients
Method
