  2. Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan; add tomatoes.
  3. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
  4. Drain and slice into thin strips.
  5. Combine tomatoes, cheese, 2 teaspoons chopped basil, oregano, garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
  6. Place chicken breast halves between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and pound each piece to an even thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. (Not too thin though!).
  7. Cut a horizontal slit through one side of each chicken breast half to form a deep pocket.
  8. Stuff 1/4 cup tomato mixture into each pocket.
  9. Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt and remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

  13. Place 1/8 teaspoon grated lemon rind on top of each stuffed chicken breast half, and drizzle each serving with 1 tablespoon chicken broth.
  14. Fold foil over chicken, and tightly seal edges. Place packets on a baking sheet.
  15. Bake packets for 20 minutes.
  16. Remove from oven, and let stand for 5 minutes.
  17. Unfold packets carefully, and thinly slice each chicken breast half.
  18. Garnish each serving with 1/2 teaspoon sliced basil, if desired.
