Servings: 4

6 Tomatoes
2 Carrots
1 Onion
1 stalk of celery
50 g streaky smoked bacon
4 discs Ciabatta bread
3-4 Tbsp Olive oil
4 Chicken fillets (approx. 100 g each)
7-10 Tbsp Salt
7-10 Tbsp Pepper
250 ml Vegetable broth (instant)
250 ml Tomato juice
3 Stem(s) Basil
125 g Mozzarella cheese
7-10 Tbsp Basil

Directions

1
Wash, clean, quarter and seed the tomatoes. Cut the flesh into small cubes. Peel carrots and onion, clean celery. Cut prepared vegetables and bacon into small cubes.
2
Fry the slices of bread briefly on each side in 1 tablespoon of hot olive oil. Wash the chicken fillets and pat them dry. Cut into flat slices and beat them a little flatter. Heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil.
3
Fry the chicken escalopes for 2-3 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper and remove. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the frying fat. Fry bacon and onion cubes briefly. Add remaining vegetables and fry for another 2 minutes.
4
Deglaze with stock and tomato juice, season with salt and pepper and boil down for about 3 minutes at high heat. Wash, chop and stir in the basil and season to taste again. Pour half of the sauce into an ovenproof dish.
5
Place the bread and schnitzel in flakes. Drizzle with remaining sauce. Cut mozzarella into slices and spread on top. Bake in the preheated oven (electric range: 225 °C/ convection oven: 200 °C/ gas: level 4) for 5-8 minutes.
6
Garnish with fresh basil.
