Step 1

Preheat grill to medium heat and set for indirect grilling.

Grill over direct heat for 5 minutes if needed, for additional browning.

Cook, stirring, over medium high heat, until tomatoes just burst, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in basil. Serve with chicken and top with cheese, if using.
