2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 boned skinned whole chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch chunks (about 8 oz.)
1/4 cup chopped scallion
1 teaspoon minced garlic

Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened and chicken is cooked through, 3-5 minutes. Stir in basil and remove from heat.
