Chicken Breasts With Creamy Basil Sauce image

This is a very quick and elegant recipe that would be great for serving special guests. I use fat-free half and half because it is one dairy product I can't tell the difference in.

This recipe was a waste of time and money. The chicken was dry and the sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. The chicken was overcooked and the sauce was too salty. I will not be making this again.
