INSTRUCTIONS
In a small saucepan on the stovetop, or in a microwave oven, bring the
tomatoes and broth just to a boil. Let stand about 15 minutes, until
the tomatoes are softened. Remove the tomatoes and reserve any
remaining broth. Cut the tomatoes in half. Use a small sharp knife to
cut as large a pocket as possible in each chicken breast, taking care
not to cut all the way through. Divide the rehydrated tomatoes and the
basil among the chicken, stuffing them into the pockets. Sprinkle the
chicken lightly with salt and pepper. In a shallow dish just large
enough to hold the chicken, combine the reserved broth, vinegar, oil,
garlic, and red pepper. Let stand 30 minutes at room temperature or up
to 2 hours in the refrigerator. Drain and discard the marinade.
Prepare a medium-hot fire. Lightly oil the grill or coat with a
non-stick vegetable spray. Grill the chicken, turning once with a
spatula, 8 to 10 minutes, until the meat is white throughout. Serve
warm or at room temperature, cut into crosswise sections and fanned
out if desired. 249 cals, 5.8 g fat (21.7% cff) Low Fat Grilling:
