BBQ Chicken Foil Packs with Veggies: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 58 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 2 cups mixed vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, red onions, corn)
– ½ cup barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Aluminum foil for packing


Instructions

Creating BBQ Chicken Foil Packs with Veggies is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Oven or Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cut the Chicken: Dice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces for faster cooking.
3. Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chicken, mixed vegetables, BBQ sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until well-coated.
4. Prepare the Foil Sheets: Cut large pieces of aluminum foil, approximately 12 inches by 12 inches in size.
5. Create the Packs: Place an even portion of the chicken and veggie mixture in the center of each foil piece. Fold the sides up and then fold the top and bottom to seal tightly, creating a packet.
6. Cook the Packs:
On the Grill: Place your foil packs directly on the grill. Cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even cooking.
In the Oven: Place the packs on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes.
7. Check for Doneness: Carefully open one pack to ensure the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
8. Serve Warm: Remove the packs from the grill or oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Caution: The steam will be hot when opening the foil!

By following these steps, you can create a fantastic dish that will surely please everyone at the table.
