Grill the tomatoes in a grill basket, 3 to 4 minutes. Slice the peppers and chop the onion; toss with the tomatoes, basil, balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and the red pepper flakes.
• Season the chicken with salt and black pepper and grill until browned and well marked, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and grill until the chicken is cooked through, about 2 more minutes.
