    tip: season your chicken how you normally do, it will seriously bring the whole dish together...i normally season the chicken with habanero pineapple, cajun, cumin, black pepper..etc. it made my dish just all around flavorful

    Sounds lovely!! It's been printed out, the calories counted, and it's been put in the "to try" tab of my recipes book! Thanks, much! =^_^=

    saving this to use on everything, might even be good over poached eggs in place of hollandaise sauce.

    I made this last night (but omitted the basil because I hate it) and added a bit of greek yogurt. Heavenly!

    I just made this earlier today. Mixed it in with some spaghetti squash and grilled chicken. It was great! Though I should have only used half the batch, and next time I think I'll try adding some greek yogurt like iggyazalea suggested.
