Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. While the oven heats, cut four pieces of aluminum foil 12x12 in size. Lay out the aluminum foil on the counter.
- Chop all the vegetables. Divide the vegetables evenly among the 4 aluminum foil packets. Add minced garlic, additional salt and pepper, and Italian Seasoning to all the packets.
- Rinse, and pat dry the chicken breast. Pound the chicken with a meat mallet, then cut each breast in half. The goal is for each piece of chicken to be equal in size. Season each chicken breast with salt and pepper.
- Place each chicken breast on the aluminum foil. Then Drizzle ½ tablespoon olive oil in each packet. Pour ¼ cup marinara sauce on top of each chicken breast. Then, place a few sprigs of fresh parsley and oregano in each packet. Once your packet is complete, begin to fold packet like a taco, then crimp edges and roll until sealed. You should have no gaps in your foil packet--steam is what will cook this meal.
- Place the packets on a baking tray and cook for 25 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Carefully open packets and eat as is or serve alongside with pasta.
Notes
- Prepping the veggies is key - This recipe for Chicken Cacciatore Foil Packets requires quite a bit of veggie prep. It's okay because you will make up time as this cooks and with very little clean-up. If you wanted to you could prep most of the vegetables the evening before and then assemble the next day once your ready to eat.
- Topping - I like to add cheese on top of the chicken and bake for a few additional minutes. You can also add pepperoni then cheese on top for an extra flavorful dinner.
- Serving Sides - You can eat this dinner as is or add some pasta and/or a side salad.
