What better way to dress up chicken than Paula's easy basil butter. This summer herb blends beautifully…

I did not have fresh tomatoes so I used canned Italian diced and dried basil. I loved it.

I have made this wonderful recipe twice now since I recieved it in a Tate of Home magazine. It was a hit both times! It is moist and super flavorful! It is just as nice to look at as it is to eat. I'm sure I will find myself making it time and time again! Thank you!

Yum! easy to make and is a satisfying dinner. I quickly made it on a weeknight too! I love garlic, but my husband would prefer it be cut in half in the recipe. I'd probably consider it in the future, especially when serving it to company. : )

Ive had better. The breading was really soggy from the tomatoes. Not bad, but not awesome. Maybe I just made it wrong. probably not a repeater...

Amazing! I've even taking the topping, mixed it with some mozzerella and used it as a topping for toasted baguette bread. MmmMmmMmm!
