Chicken with Creamy Basil Sundried-Tomato Sauce

I saw a yummy looking recipe floating around on Facebook recently and wanted to give it a try.  Like most of my cooking, I didn’t stick to the recipe and changed things up a bit to put my own twist on it.

My kids said they like my thick and creamy Alfredo sauce better, but my hubby liked this recipe because it was lighter than an Alfredo, but still had a bit of creamy texture to it.  This was one of my favorite recipes I’ve made in a long time.  I’m a big fan of basil and sundried tomatoes, and love using ingredients from my garden, so this one made me happy.
