Tin Foil Chicken Veggies Recipes

CHICKEN VEGGIE PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Flatten chicken breasts to 1/2-in. thickness; place each on a piece of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Layer the mushrooms, carrots, onions and red pepper over chicken; sprinkle with pepper, thyme and, if desired, salt. , Fold foil around chicken and vegetables and seal tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Bake until chicken juices run clear, about 20 minutes. If desired, serve with lemon wedges.

TIN FOIL CHICKEN & VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Tear off four sheets of foil (preferably heavy duty), each about 12 by 15 inches. Smear about a tablespoon of barbecue sauce in a rough rectangular shape in the middle of each sheet.
• Divide the chicken slices among the four sheets atop the barbecue sauce. Add the peppers, potatoes and any other vegetables. Drizzle another tablespoon of barbecue sauce over top.
• In half-inch pleats, fold the foil over itself first lengthwise and then crosswise to create tightly sealed packets. Note: Don't wrap the packets so tightly that the contents might poke holes in the foil.
• Place on a baking sheet and bake for 50 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. Carefully cut open the packets. Note: Opening the hot, steam-filled packets is a job best left to adults.
• Note: Left sealed, the packet contents stay hot for a long time, making this technique a supper stabilizer for nights when everyone's on different schedules.

OVEN-BAKED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut an 18-inch wide roll of heavy-duty aluminum foil into six 12-inch long pieces.
• Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise, so the thickest part is about 1/2 inch thick and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set each seasoned chicken breast onto a single piece of aluminum foil.
• Combine olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add sliced carrots, parsnip, red bell peppers, and mushrooms. Stir to combine vegetables with the seasoned oil. Set an even amount of vegetables on top of each piece of chicken.
• Top vegetables with a whole slice of red onion and place a sprig of fresh rosemary on top of the onion.
• Fold aluminum like a book cover over the top of each serving and crimp the edges all around tightly together.
• Place foil packets with the chicken on the bottom onto a 12x18-inch rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. Watch out for any steam when you check the chicken for doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove foil packets from the oven, open the packets, and serve immediately.
