Ingredients

4 boneless chicken breasts extra-virgin olive oil salt Pepper 3 oz. pecorino, Gruyere, or other semimoist, semihard cheese 16 large fresh basil leaves 1 oz. grana padano cheese 3 to 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Lay four basil leaves over the cheese on each breast, completely covering the cheese. Grate the grana padano over each breast.
