If you have the time to open two cans of beans and grill some chicken, you'll have yourself a Chow Now dinner. You just have to be sure to use thin chicken cutlets and have the vermouth on hand in your pantry. This is a recipe for the flavor diet . I haven't tried it, but it sounds yummy.

4 (4 ounce) chicken cutlets |
1 pinch salt |
4 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, thickly sliced |
1/2 cup vermouth |
1 cup fat-free chicken broth |
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained |
2 teaspoons dried thyme |
fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Salt lightly.
2. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and sauté for a few seconds.
3. Add the vermouth and bring to a boil for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the broth and beans and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, add the thyme and pepper, and simmer for 10 minutes.
