In small bowl, combine mustard, minced garlic and pepper; spread over cut sides of chicken breasts. Place 2 basil leaves on 1 side of each breast; fold over. Wrap each breast with prosciutto slice. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.)

Place chicken on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and cook, turning once, for about 12 minutes or until no longer pink inside.
