Grilled Chicken With White Beans Provençal

Submitted by BurtonFanatic

"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 found it off a website, though I can't remember which one now. I haven't tried it, but it sounds yummy.
