Preheat oven to 400°F.
Slice each chicken breast lengthwise in half to form a pocket to stuff the chicken, leaving one end intact.
In a small bowl, mix together the mascarpone and pesto.
Fill each chicken breast with the cheesy pesto mixture and brush with oil.
Season with salt and pepper and then coat in seasoned breadcrumbs.
On a baking sheet, add grape tomatoes and coat in oil. Then, add the stuffed chicken to the same pan.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. This time will vary based on the thickness of your chicken breast.
