Make a horizontal cut in each chicken breast half to within 1/2 inch of ends, forming a pocket. Brush each pocket with 1 teaspoon mustard; fill with prosciutto, cheese and basil. Secure pockets with toothpicks.
Heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in oil 12 to 18 minutes, turning once, until juice is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut.

Betty's Tip
Here's a great shortcut for making this recipe if you don't want to cut a pocket in the chicken: Cook chicken breasts in oil about 6 minutes, then turn, brush with mustard and top with prosciutto. Cook 6 to 8 minutes longer or until juice is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut. Place cheese and basil leaves on chicken; cook about 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
