PrintOven Foil-Pack Honey Dijon Chicken and Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Montreal chicken seasoning
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lb)
- 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1 3/4 lb), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces (4 cups)
- 1/2 large red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Heat oven to 400°F or heat gas or charcoal grill for direct grilling. Cut 4 (18×12-inch) sheets of foil. In medium bowl, mix melted butter, honey, mustard and seasoning. Add chicken, and turn to coat; set aside.
- In large microwavable bowl, microwave sweet potatoes uncovered on High 5 to 7 minutes or until fork tender. Carefully divide potatoes among the 4 pieces of foil. Top with bell pepper chunks. Top each with chicken breast and sauce.
- For each packet, bring up 2 sides of foil over chicken and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
- If baking, place packets on cookie sheet, and bake 25 to 30 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). If grilling, place packets on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 18 to 20 minutes, rotating packets one-half turn after 10 minutes, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F).
- Place packets on plates. Cut large X across top of each packet; carefully fold back foil. Top with green onions.
