| Instructions |
| Place the milk in a shallow dish and the bread crumbs in another shallow dish. Dip the chicken in the milk then the bread crumbs, turning to coat completely with each. In a large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and brown for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until no pink remains in the chicken. Remove the chicken to a platter and cover to keep warm. Add the broth to the skillet; bring to a boil over medium heat, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the heavy cream and pimientos. Bring to a boil and continue heating for about 1 minute, stirring constantly; reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, basil, and pepper, and cook until heated through. Slice the chicken or serve whole, topped with the sauce.
