Servings
Ingredients
4 medium garlic cloves , finely chopped
1 tbsp canola oil (or butter)
2 tsp packed brown sugar
0.25 tsp salt
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
0.25 cup cold water
4 piece fresh tomato slices
4 oz Cheese, havarti, slice , cut into 1/8-inch slices (or Swiss)
1 tbsp fresh basil , chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)


Directions
1 Cook garlic and oil in a 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium low heat 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, just until garlic begins to brown. Stir in brown sugar until melted.
2 Sprinkle salt over chicken. Add chicken to skillet. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, turning until brown.
3 Add water. Cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until chicken is glazed and no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut and liquid has evaporated. Chicken will be golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent scorching.
