This takes almost no time to prepare, and you can even do the tomato/basil mixture the night before! It will be a hit.
Ingredients
1 1/2 lbs skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 6 fillets
2 tbsp light butter (I used Brummel & Brown)
1 lb cherry tomatoes, halved
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/2 tbsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Spray a medium sized non-stick skillet with non-fat cooking spray or an olive oil mister and set over medium high heat.
Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt, pepper and oregano. Place into pan and cook about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until chicken is almost entirely cooked through.
Turn the heat down to medium and then add in the tomatoes and garlic. Cook for about 4-5 minutes.
Add in basil and butter, and stir until combined. Season with additional salt and pepper as desired. Turn heat to low and let sit for about 5 more minutes.
