Mediterranean Chicken with Lemon Cream Sauce

Easy and very good.
"Great recipe, but the ingredients call out for parsley when the instructions call for basil. This little thing could cause a huge difference in taste considering the amount called for in the recipe. I made it with parsley because that's what was added to my shopping list, but next time I think I'll try basil and I bet it comes out even better." - karenharwoodYield: 4 Servings Ready in 50 minutes

Here it is! We increased the cream to 1 1/2 cups and used basil. This was sooo great. It was a home coming dinner for my husband and he gave it a 10.
