So many of you have been going crazy over these Foil Pack Italian Sausage and Veggies and I’ve loved seeing all your recreations on Instagram and Facebook! I’ve had quite a few people ask me if they can change it up and add chicken, so I thought I would make a separate recipe — these Italian Chicken and Veggie foil packs and tell you exactly how it works. 🙂
I changed up the veggies a bit, but you’ve still got all the amazing Italian seasonings. Plus, this dish is just about as inexpensive to make and just as healthy. Good-for-you ingredients, very little prep, and virtually no clean-up! This dinner is a mega win! ?

Ingredients
tgh
- 2 large (16 ounces total; 1 pound) chicken breasts, sliced horizontally to get 4 even 4-ounce pieces
- 2 cups baby potatoes, halved or quartered
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow onion, cut into rings
- 1 large carrot, cut into matchsticks
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Seasonings
- 1/2 tablespoon EACH: dried basil, dried oregano, dried parsley, garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon EACH onion powder, dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: fresh lemon, fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley, freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high or the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to get 4 pieces. Pound the pieces to even thickness. Make sure each piece is 4 ounces.
- Prep the veggies: half or quarter baby red potatoes (you want pretty small pieces so they'll cook in the same time as everything else). Thinly slice the green bell pepper, cut the onion into rings, and cut the carrots into 1/8th inch thick matchsticks.
- In a very large bowl, add the chicken, potatoes, bell pepper, onion rings, carrots, and minced garlic. Pour the olive oil over everything and then all of the seasonings: the dried basil, dried oregano, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes if desired. Add salt and pepper to taste (I add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 of pepper, but do it to your preference).
- Toss all of the ingredients together to ensure everything is well coated in the seasonings and olive oil.
