How to Make Asian Style Chicken Packets With Vegetables

1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C) or preheat grill to medium-high heat.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons dry sherry or vermouth, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
3. Add 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch pieces), 1/2 cup frozen peas, 1 cup broccoli florets, and 1/2 cup water chestnuts (sliced) to the bowl. Toss until chicken and vegetables are evenly coated.
4. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among four 12-inch x 18-inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
5. Bring up the sides of the foil to create a packet.
6. Double fold the top and ends of the foil to create a secure seal.
7. Place packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, or grill for 12-14 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender. Internal temperature of chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
8. Carefully open packets (be cautious of steam) and serve immediately.
