Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

barbecue sauce
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut in half-inch strips
1 green pepper, sliced in rings
1 red pepper, sliced in rings
4 small new potatoes, sliced thin
frozen corn (optional)
frozen peas (optional)
onion, diced (optional)
canned mushroom slices (optional)
additional barbecue sauce (optional)

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.
