BBQ Chicken Packet
"I know there are a lot of yummy variations of this, but thought I would post my own. Simple, versatile, healthy----and there you go! I used slices of red and green pepper as well as red onion. My DH, who doesn't like peppers or onions, suggested I use more----it was excellent with the combo of chicken, pineapple and BBQ sauce. No pots, pans or bowls and on the grill----my favorite way of cooking! Make as many as you want, no brainer, I made 8 for lunches."

- Serves:

4
ingredients
- 4 small skinless chicken breast halves
- 4 pineapple rings
- 1⁄2 green pepper, sliced
- 1⁄2 red pepper, sliced
- 1⁄2 red onion, sliced (optional)
- 4 tablespoons barbecue sauce (your favorite)
directions
- Preheat your grill to medium.
- Make sure your chicken breasts are about the same size and thickness (pound out ends that are too thick).
- Place a chicken breast in the middle of a large sheet of heavy duty foil (important).
- Top with pineapple rings, peppers & onions and BBQ sauce.
- Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation.
- Put on grill of 15 minutes, I rotated my packets mid way because my grill doesn't cook evenly.
- Remove and of course you want to make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through, mine was perfect.
- Now you can serve it as is, and it is a lovely presentation. I personally felt the juices left at the bottom of the packet were too valuable to waste, so I cut up the chicken, pineapple and veggies and mixed them with the juices. YUMM! I didn't do it at the time, but I'm sure it would be wonderful served over rice. Don't pass up this super easy, healthy, dish free entree!
