Honey Basalmic Chicken with Basil

By request. We usually eat this mid summer when we have a TON of basil that needs to be eaten.

Honey Basalmic Chicken with Basil (for 2)
chicken, sliced into tenders
salt
pepper
4T basalmic vinegar
2T honey
1-2c fresh basil

Salt and pepper chicken, sautee until almost/mostly done, browned on the outside.
Combine basalmic vinegar and honey, add to pan with chicken. Simmer to reduce and finish cooking chicken, (5-8 min? it won't be a thick sauce). Add 1-2 c fresh basil (or as much or little as you want, we like a lot!) to the pan, JUST before serving, turn off heat and allow to wilt (1-2 min). Serve with couscous or potatoes. It is good over garlicky mashed potatoes, or for less work mushroom couscous made with chicken broth.
