4. Season chicken with salt, pepper, and grill seasoning.
5. Cook on a hot grill until chicken is cooked through.
6. Throw the tomatoes on the last few minutes to get a nice char on both sides.

8. Cover with foil and set inside a warm oven (350 degrees or so) for a few minutes to help melt the cheese.
