Chicken in Basil Cream Recipe

Chicken Parmesan is a traditional Italian dish made with fried chicken topped with a creamy Parmesan cheese sauce and baked in the oven. When you don’t have an oven, it becomes quite difficult to make this delicious chicken dish.

This Chicken in Basil Cream recipe is the easier variation of Chicken Parm with the additional twist of basil included in the Parmesan sauce. It requires none of the ingredients (or time) of the traditional Chicken Parmesan but has the same exquisite taste.
