  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 41 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 large lemons, sliced
– 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli)
– 3 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 teaspoons garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh herbs (such as parsley or thyme) for garnish


Instructions

Creating Lemon Chicken Foil Packets is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts on a large piece of aluminum foil. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
3. Add Lemon and Veggies: Arrange lemon slices on top of the chicken. Scatter mixed vegetables around the chicken.
4. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Pour olive oil over the chicken and vegetables for added flavor and moisture.
5. Wrap the Packets: Fold the foil over the chicken and veggies, sealing tightly to make a closed packet. This will trap steam and keep everything moist.
6. Bake: Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
7. Serve: Carefully unwrap the packets (watch out for the steam). Garnish with fresh herbs if desired before plating.

Following these steps will help you create an unforgettable dish that’s bound to leave your taste buds amazed.
