INGREDIENTS:

PREPARATION:

Trim excess fat from chicken breasts; rinse and pat dry. In a large heavy skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat; add chopped onion and basil and sauté for a few minutes, or until onion is tender. Add 2 or 3 chicken breasts to the skillet; Sauté chicken for 15 minutes, or until golden. Add remaining butter and remaining chicken breasts; saute for 15 minutes, or until golden.
