Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil
- 1 pound of chicken breast or sausage slices (for added flavor)
- 1 cup of sliced vegetables (bell peppers, onions, zucchini, or potatoes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder or minced garlic
- Fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, or rosemary (optional)
- Additional seasonings like paprika, chili powder, or Italian herbs (optional)
Instructions
- Start by chopping proteins and vegetables into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking and maximum flavor absorption.
- Lay out each sheet of heavy-duty foil and evenly distribute the ingredients. Drizzle with olive oil or melted butter, then sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs. Fold the foil tightly to seal in all the flavors and juices.
- If camping, place the foil packets on hot coals or a grill for about 20-30 minutes, turning halfway through. For oven cooking, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes until proteins are cooked and vegetables are tender.
- Carefully open the foil packets to avoid hot steam and serve immediately for a delicious, fuss-free meal.
Notes
- Use heavy-duty aluminum foil to prevent leaks and ensure even cooking.
- Feel free to customize ingredients based on dietary preferences or available ingredients.
- Adding cheese or lemon juice can enhance flavors.
- Line your baking sheet or grill with foil for easier cleanup.
