Whisk together all ingredients except oil. Slowly whisk in oil to emulsify.
Description
Place chicken in 1-gallon zip bag. Add Lemon Vinaigrette, seal and marinate in fridge at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375.
Cut each tomato into quarters lengthwise and place in medium bowl. Toss gently with sugar, salt and olive oil. Spoon tomato mixture onto a rimmed cookie sheet so that tomatoes don\\'t touch. Roast for 30 minutes. Spoon tomatoes and all accumulated juices into small bowl. Add cheese, basil and pepper, tossing gently. Let sit at room temp while chicken cooks.
Remove chicken from fridge and discard marinade. Place chicken on same cookie sheet used to roast tomatoes. Roast for 30 minutes, turning once, or until fully cooked.
To serve, place 1 chicken breast on each dinner plate. Spoon 1/4 of tomato mixture over top.

Notes
This was a little salty. Maybe reduce salt on tomatoes to 1/2 tsp. Or don\\'t scrape the juices off the roasting pan into the bowl when you toss tomatoes with cheese.
