In a large skillet on the stove, over low heat, melt the butter and saute the garlic for 1-2 minutes. Add the Hunt's tomato sauce and the basil. Heat to boiling. Stir to combine everything as much as possible.
Rinse chicken and then pat dry with towel. Add the chicken breasts to the pan with the sauce and allow to simmer over medium-low heat for about 25 minutes, flipping once.
