Grilled Chicken Fajitas In Foil Recipes

FOIL-PACKET CHICKEN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Tear off four 12-by-18-inch pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil and set aside.
• Toss the chicken with the onion and bell peppers in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the fajita seasoning, oil, adobo sauce, cumin and lime juice in a separate small bowl. Pour over the chicken mixture and toss gently with tongs to coat evenly.
• Divide the chicken and vegetable mixture among the 4 sheets of foil. Bring up two short sides to meet and fold over a few times to close tightly, then fold the remaining sides in and up to seal the packet completely. Repeat with the remaining foil packets.
• Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven, place the packets on in a single layer and return to the oven until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables have softened slightly, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Warm the tortillas by wrapping them in a clean kitchen towel and microwaving until warm, about 40 seconds. Serve the fajitas with the tortillas, rice and toppings of your choice.

GRILLED CHICKEN FAJITAS IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium/medium high (about 450 degrees F). Place the chicken, bell peppers, onion, and zucchini in a large bowl. Top with the lime juice, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, and cayenne. Toss to coat.
• Lay 6 large pieces of heavy-duty foil on the counter (if not using heavy duty, use two pieces of regular foil stacked on top of each other for each packet). Generously coat the foil with nonstick spray. Divide the chicken and vegetables among the 6 pieces of foil, then wrap them to form packets: bring up 2 sides of the foil so the edges meet. Seal the edges, making a tight 1/2-inch fold, then fold again, allowing space for heat to circulate. Fold in the ends to seal.
• Grill for 8 to 12 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the vegetables are crisp-tender. Carefully open the foil and allow steam to escape. Serve warm with tortillas and desired toppings.

GRILLED CHICKEN FAJITAS

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, olive oil, and fajita seasoning together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cut bell peppers in half and discard the inner membranes and seeds.
• Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Place chicken and peppers (cut-sides down) on the preheated grill. Cook, turning occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, and peppers have nice grill marks on them, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Cut peppers and chicken into strips and serve on tortillas.
