Dijon Chicken, Rice and Garden Vegetable Foil Packs image

Garlic and Dijon mustard bring tons of flavor to boneless skinless chicken breasts, which are tucked into foil packs along with rosemary, rice and fresh veggies before being grilled (or baked!) for a dinner that's as tasty as it is easy to clean up.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
2 cups uncooked instant white rice
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 small zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch slices
3 medium carrots, cut into 1/4-inch slices
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Steps:

  • Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. Spray with cooking spray.
  • Pour broth in 4-cup glass measuring cup. Add rice and rosemary; stir and let stand about 8 minutes or until most of liquid is absorbed.
  • In small bowl, stir together mustard, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Set aside.
  • In large bowl, mix zucchini, carrots, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Divide rice mixture among foil sheets. Brush both sides of chicken with Dijon mixture; place 1 on top of each mound of rice. Divide vegetables among foil sheets, placing them next to chicken breasts.
  • For each packet, bring up 2 sides of foil over chicken and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  • Place packets on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 18 to 20 minutes, rotating packets one-half turn after 10 minutes, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F).
  • Place packets on plates. Cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil.
