Ingredients:

Serving

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (4-6 oz each)
8 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained
1/2 bunch basil
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3/4 cup chicken stock

Directions:

Cut a deep horizontal pocket in the side of each chicken breast. Make the pocket as large as you can without piercing the top or bottom of the breast.
Place 2 slices of tomato and about 4 basil leaves in the pocket of each chicken breast.
Secure the pocket with toothpicks threading along the side to close.
Heat the oil in a heavy oven-proof skillet until it begins to smoke.
Cook each side of the chicken until golden brown.
Add the vinegar and chicken stock and bring to a boil.
Lower the heat and gently simmer the chicken for 2 or 3 minutes per side until cooked through.
Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and keep warm.
Continue to cook the sauce until it is reduced to a thick syrup.
Taste the sauce and and season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the sauce over each chicken breast.
