Lemon Chicken Fettuccine **

This is nice and light--

need: 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (4 oz each)
12 oz fettuccine
1T olive oil
1T butter
2 garlic cloves (minced)
3/4 cup green beans (sliced) I use the canned, french cut, then you don't have to cut them
1/3 cup white grape juice
1/2 lemon (juiced) I squeeze this over the chicken rather than using lemon pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup parsley (chopped)
1/2 tsp salt and pepper

Lightly brush chicken with a little olive oil and lemon juice. Grill on medium high for 6 minutes on each side. Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Drain. Heat oil and butter in saucepan. Add garlic and beans and saute until garlic begins to brown, this important or the garlic is too strong. Add juices and reduce (about 4 minutes). Add pasta, coating completely. Fold into serving bowl, adding Parmesan, parsley, salt, and pepper. Top with sliced chicken and serve.
