Roast 2-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts at 350º for 40 minutes. Top with basil sauce and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes. Sauce is also great over pasta like No Yolk egg noodles. Basil Sauce • 1 c. skim or 1% milk • 1 clove garlic (2-4 cloves if you really like garlic) • 2 Tbsp. butter (or no-cholesterol margarine like Becel) • 2 Tbsp. flour • 1/2 tsp. chopped fresh basil (lots more if you have it) • Seasoned salt and pepper to taste Basil sauce: Blend all ingredients in blender or right in saucepan with a hand blender until everything is mixed well. Cook over medium heat until sauce reaches the boil and simmer for an additional minute. Note: Although the above recipe recommends that you roast your chicken breasts in the oven, you can also poach them on top of the stove. If you decide to use the poaching method, be sure to simmer them for about one hour in low-salt chicken stock. Drain the stock before adding basil sauce and simmer on very low heat for another half hour after adding the sauce.
