A quick pan sauce can take skinless boneless chicken to great heights. This one pairs cherry tomatoes with fresh basil and adds plenty of oomph from toasted garlic. We love serving it over a grainy side like quinoa or farro—the better to soak up all the juices. You can also make the sauce on its own to spoon over shrimp, cod, or sliced steak.
