How to Make Tin Foil Chicken Veggies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Tear off four 12x15 inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  3. Place 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce in the center of each foil sheet, spreading it into a rough rectangle.
  4. Divide 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4-6 slices) evenly among the four foil sheets, placing them on top of the BBQ sauce.
  5. Add vegetables: 1 cup chopped bell peppers (any color), 1.5 lbs small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large), and 1 cup chopped onions.
  6. Drizzle another tablespoon of BBQ sauce over the chicken and vegetables.
  7. Fold the foil over the filling: First fold the sides inward, then fold the top and bottom over to create a sealed packet. Crimp the edges tightly to prevent leaks.
  8. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Internal temperature of chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
  9. Carefully remove the foil packets from the oven. Let them rest for 5 minutes before opening to allow the juices to settle. Open carefully, as steam will escape.
