Ingredients

½ cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed
6 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs
20 fresh sage leaves
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cut into strips
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 ¼ pounds fresh linguine pasta
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, bread crumbs and sage. Cook and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet, and place in a bowl. Set the heat to medium-high. Add the chicken to the skillet; cook and stir for about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice, and reduce the heat to medium.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender. Drain.
Add the pasta to the skillet, and stir to distribute chicken. Transfer to a serving dish, and toss with the garlic and breadcrumbs. Serve with fresh Parmesan cheese.
