One of the best chicken recipes I have ever had! I even used that squeeze bottle of basil you find in the refrigerated section in the produce aisle as I was out of fresh basil leaves. I have made this with fresh basil and was so good. I did use a bit more goat cheese then it called for and I also used boneless skinless chicken breast and just cut a slit in the side.
