Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato cubed
- 2 bell peppers sliced
- 1 zucchini sliced into half rounds
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 lices Bacon
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground paprika
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ⅓ cup BBQ sauce divided
For Serving:
- fresh cilantro
- Sliced avocado
Instructions
- Light the grill to medium-high heat. Lay out 4 large pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil (or doubled-up regular aluminum foil) on a clean work surface.
- Place an equal amount of sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and zucchini, plus 1 chicken breast and 1 slice of bacon, on each piece of foil.
- Combine the salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small dish.
- Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle the seasoning over the chicken and vegetables. Rub the seasoning and oil into the chicken breasts and toss the veggies until evenly coated.
- Place the chicken atop the veggies and brush the breasts with half of the BBQ sauce.
- Wrap up each foil packet by bringing two sides together, folding the foil down into the center, and folding in the two ends of the packet.
- Grill the packets for 15-20 minutes, until the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F and the potatoes are cooked through.
- Remove the bacon slice from each packet and chop into bits. Sprinkle back over the foil packets.
- Brush the chicken with the remaining barbecue sauce and garnish with fresh cilantro and avocado slices to serve.
