SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN FOIL PACKETS

If you want dinner on the table in about 20 minutes and no clean up, this low fat Southwestern-style chicken in foil is the answer. When you seal the food in the packs, be sure to leave some space for air to circulate inside. Be careful when unsealing the packs after cooking, as the escaping steam will be very hot.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Place one chicken breast in the middle of each sheet of foil wrap or parchment paper. Spoon one fourth of the salsa, black beans and sweetcorn on each of the four chicken breasts.
  • Seal each pack by bringing up sides and folding the top edge over twice. Seal the edges in the same way, leaving enough room for heat to circulate inside.
  • Place packs on a cookie sheet and cook for 20 minutes. Unseal packs carefully.

4 sheets aluminum foil, wrap (12X18)
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup chunky salsa
1 cup black beans or 1 cup dark red kidney beans
1 cup frozen sweetcorn

KRAFT FOIL PACKET SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN DINNER

This is a quick, healthy meal that isn't time consuming to prepare and easy to clean up! To prevent rice from sticking to the foil, spray foil with cooking spray before using. Or, use nonstick foil. If the chicken breast halves in your market are larger than 4 oz. each, they will take longer to cook. Be sure to cook them long enough so that they are no longer pink in the centers and the juices run clear (170°F).
