I like the sauce for the chicken. Was tasty and easy too make. I served over buttered rice. A side of green beans.

Just a fabulous chicken dish! A wonderful rich taste but lighter than an alfredo, and the fresh tomatoes and basil absolutely make this dish. Quick, easy, delicious - this is a dish I will make again and again!
