Equipment
- Tin Foil
- Baking Sheet
- Kitchen Knife
Ingredients
- 4 Chicken Breasts
- 3 Yellow Squash
- 3 Zucchini
- 1 Yellow Onion
- 1/2 cup Olive Oil
Seasonings
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Italian Seasonings
- 1/2 tsp Lemon Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Cut your breasts in half down the middle and remove any excess fat off of them. Tear off 4 pieces of foil, each about a foot long. Add the pieces of chicken to the center of each piece of foil and manipulate the foil into a bowl-like shape.
- Slice your squash into little half inch slices and divide them up amongst your four foils. Do the same with your onion. Drizzle about 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in each packet. Mix all of your seasonings together in a bowl then add 1-2 teaspoons into each packet.
- You'll then fold in two side together to the center. Then take the other two sides and roll them up until it makes a bag-like shape. Try not to let it have any holes in it so the steam will stay inside. Bake at 375 for at least an hour or until the chicken reaches 165 internally. Serve right out of the packet and enjoy!
