1 (3 1/2 ounce) brie cheese
3 large california avocados
1/3 cup fresh basil, shredded and divided
6 chicken breast halves (bone-in, skin on)
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup chicken broth
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

Remove rind from brie and chop cheese.
Mash 2 avocados with a fork; stir in cheese and 2 tablespoons basil.
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper; loosen skin from chicken breasts without detaching it; spread avocado mixture evenly beneath skin.
Prepare a hot fire by piling charcoal or lava rocks on one side in a Charcoal or Gas grill, leaving other side empty.
Arrange chicken, skin side up over empty side and grill, covered, over medium-high heat (350 degrees to 400 degrees) 45 minutes or until chicken is done. (Do not turn chicken.).
Process remaining avocado, remaining basil, broth, and next 3 ingredients in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Serve with chicken.
