When I did Weight Watchers a long while back I bought the cookbook "5 Ingredient 15 minute Cookbook". In it I found this recipe. When my friend Jill posted that she had lots of Fresh Basil on facebook, I jumped at the chance to get some.. I love the smell and taste of fresh basil. Make this and serve it with the Broccoli Couscous it is quite fabulous. I didn't have any Couscous so we just had jasmine rice (which is my favorite rice ever, thanks to my sister Rebecca for introducing me to it) Some of my children do not like the sauce so I just take their chicken out before I add it to the pan.
Pan-Glazed Chicken with Basil
Ingredients
- 4 (4-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh or 2 teaspoon dried basil
- Sprinkle both sides of chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

- Stir in vinegar, honey, and basil; Cook 1 minute. (I usually double or triple the sauce)
