Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 medium-sized Zucchini
- 2 medium-sized Red bell pepper
- 3 medium-sized Carrots
- 1 large Red onion
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Dried Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 large Lemon
- 4 sheets (about 12x12 inches each) Aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thinly slice the zucchini, red bell peppers, carrots, and red onion and set them aside.
Lay out 4 large sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface.
Place one chicken breast in the center of each sheet of foil.
Divide the sliced vegetables evenly among the packets, arranging them around the chicken.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over each chicken and vegetable packet.
In a small bowl, mix together the dried Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables in each packet.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice evenly over the chicken and vegetables in all packets.
Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over each packet for a burst of freshness.
Fold the foil over the chicken and vegetables securely, sealing the edges tightly to create a packet.
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Carefully open the packets to release the steam, serve directly in the foil for easy cleanup, and enjoy!
