Ingredients

½ pound chicken 6 slices (not too thin) (8-10⅓ ounces)
2 sprigs fresh rosemary chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pinches salt
2-3 dashes pepper
1-2 dashes thyme
2 large round tomatoes (not too ripe but firm)
¾ cup cracker crumbs (I use saltine crackers)
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3-4 fresh fresh basil
1-2 sprigs fresh thyme

Steps

1
In a medium bowl add the chicken slices, toss with rosemary, salt, pepper, thyme and olive oil. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for approximately 15-20 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, wash and cut thick slices of tomato (3 slices per tomato), on a medium-size plate mix together the cracker crumbs and Parmesan cheese, dredge the tomato slices one at a time in the crumb mixture and grill. Grill on a hot pan-grill or barbecue, on both sides until golden, approximately 2 minutes each side, move to a clean plate.
3
Grill the chicken in the same manner until no longer pink inside.
4
Place a slice or 2 (if they are small slices) of chicken on top of 1 tomato slice, drizzle with lemon juice, top with chopped fresh basil and thyme if desired. Enjoy!
