Chicken Cyril With A Tomato Basil Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was a very nice meal with an interesting combination of flavors. I made it exactly as directed. Next time though, I will pound the chicken flat and cut it into smaller pieces. Because I took the chicken straight out of the pkg and cooked it, the finished entrees were HUGE. Didn't leave much room for side dishes.

    Other than that, very elegant recipe, definitely one to impress company!
