Chicken breast fillet in creamy tomato sauce
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I had fresh parsley on hand, so I added it to the sauce, but if you have fresh basil, be sure to add it too! The dish will have an even more wonderful aroma. Choose any cream cheese you like. Use mozzarella for baking. The perfect side dish for this meal is rice. Serve hot.
