Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 piece Lemon, sliced into thin rounds
- 4 sprigs Fresh rosemary or thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 pieces Red bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 2 pieces Zucchini, thinly sliced
- 4 sheets Aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
Cut 4 large sheets of aluminum foil, about 12 inches long each, and set them aside.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet and brush both sides generously with the olive oil mixture.
Top each chicken breast with 2-3 slices of lemon and a sprig of rosemary or thyme.
Evenly distribute the sliced red bell peppers and zucchini around the chicken breasts within each foil packet.
Fold the foil over the chicken and vegetables, crimping the edges to seal tightly and form individual packets.
Place the packets on a baking sheet if using the oven, or directly on the grill grates for grilling.
Cook for 20-25 minutes in the oven or grill, flipping the packets halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Carefully open the packets (watching for steam) and serve the chicken with the roasted vegetables alongside.
