Foil Pack Chicken
4 sheets heavy duty aluminum foil
4 boneless chicken breasts 4 small zucchini
4 small yellow squash
Sliced onion to taste, I just used dried chopped onion
1 can black beans, drained
olive oil
McCormick's Spice Blends--Santa Fe style
butter
Corn starch, optional
Oil the center of the foil and place one chicken breast on each. Sprinkle with a little of the spice. Slice 1 each zucchini and yellow squash into 1/2'; rounds and mound on top of chicken. Sprinkle a quarter can of the black beans on top, add onion to taste. Drizzle a little olive oil over all and sprinkle on more of the spice mix to taste. Add dabs of butter. You can add a little cornstarch to thicken the juices that will form. Do the same for the remaining three breasts.
Fold up long sides of foil and fold over, leaving room for the steam. Fold up the ends till you have a nice packet. Cook on med/high heat on grill for about 45 minutes. Don't turn the packets over as the liquid will drain out. Place on plates when done, unfold, being careful of escaping steam, and enjoy.
Great with iced tea, and chilled fruit salad.

1 pound chicken (hamburger, shrimp or beef tips/stew)
mixed fresh vegetables (potatoes, onion, broccoli, carrots, etc.)
butter (if meat has no fat)
salt and pepper, to taste
Use heavy duty foil or foil pouches, add a serving of chicken(or other meat) to center of each foil pack. Add chopped vegetables of choice to each. Broccoli cooks easily, so use whole florets. Potatoes and carrots are very hard, so slice into smaller than bite-size pieces. Add butter to chicken or shrimp to ensure the whole thing doesn't stick to the foil. Season and close the bag or fold foil with center seam and ends sealed well. Cook over fire, about 20 minutes, rotating and turning often with tongs.Does anyone have an easy ';foil pack'; recipes for chicken?
