From: HungryMonster.com
Serves: 6
 

Ingredients:

3/4 cup dried tomatoes -- dry packed
4 medium garlic cloves
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt -- to taste
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
30 ounces chicken breasts -- boned, (6 fillets) trimmed and flattened
4 tablespoons unsalted butter -- at room temperature
 

Preparation:

1. Soften the dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes in boiling water for at least 15 minutes. Drain well. 2. Mince the garlic in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the drained tomatoes and the rest of the ingredients for the paste and process until pureed and the consistency of a thick paste. Reserve 2 tablespoons. 3. Place the chicken breasts in large, shallow, non-aluminum dish and coat evenly with the paste. Make sure to put some under the skin. Refrigerate 2 to 8 hours, turning several times to make sure the marinade is adhering to the chicken. (The longer it marinates, the spicier it will be.) 4. In a food processor fitted with a steel blade process the butter with the reserved tomato paste until well blended. Place on a sheet of wax paper and roll up into a cylinder. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until read to use. It should become very firm. 5. Prepare the grill for medium-heat grilling. 6. Grill the chicken 3 inches from the flame for 7 to 10 minutes per side basting with a slice of the butter mixture on each side. 7. Arrange the chicken on individual plates and top each piece with a thin slice of the butter. Advance Preparation: This may be prepared 8 hrs in advance through step 4 and refrigerated. As a light entree: make 8 to 12 salads of chicken, sauté‚ed zucchini and arugula. THE TASTE OF SUMMER; (1988) Diane Rossen Worthington (Bantam).
