Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic (about 1 clove)
- 4 plum tomatoes, quartered
- 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 (4-ounce) skinned, boned chicken breast halves
- Vegetable cooking spray
- 4 plum tomatoes, halved
Preparation
- Position knife blade in food processor bowl. Combine first 6 ingredients in processor bowl. Process until smooth. Set aside 1/4 cup tomato mixture.
- Place chicken in a large heavy-duty, zip-top plastic bag. Pour remaining tomato mixture over chicken. Seal bag; turn bag to coat chicken. Marinate in refrigerator 8 hours.
- Coat grill rack with cooking spray; place on grill over medium-hot coals (350° to 400°). Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Coat tomato halves with cooking spray. Place chicken and tomato halves on rack; grill, covered, 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until chicken is done and tomato is cooked but still slightly firm. Place chicken on 4 individual serving plates; top each chicken breast half with 1 tablespoon reserved tomato mixture. Arrange 2 grilled tomato halves on each plate with chicken.
Note: To mince garlic in the food processor, drop it through the food chute with the processor running and process until it's minced. Than add other ingredients to chop.
