Chicken, pasta, garlic and herbs what's not to like

I like this recipe, but only with butter. Did you know that Oleo, as margarine as then called, was originally developed to fatten turkeys. They died. What's not to like about this recipe? Good procedures and basil and onions. I think some Jasmine rice would also work. Tasty!
