Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 whole lemon, sliced
• 2 cups carrots, thinly sliced
• 2 cups zucchini, thinly sliced
• 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 sheets aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your campfire or grill to medium heat.

Step 2

Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each about 12 inches long.

Step 3

Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil onto each foil sheet to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet.

Step 5

Divide the sliced lemon, carrots, zucchini, and red bell pepper evenly among the packets, arranging them around the chicken.

Step 6

Sprinkle the minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper over the chicken and vegetables.

Step 7

Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top of each packet.

Step 8

Fold the foil over the chicken and vegetables, sealing the edges tightly to create a packet.

Step 9

Place the foil packets on the grill or in the hot coals of the campfire.

Step 10

Cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender.

Step 11

Carefully remove the packets from the heat and let them cool for a minute before opening, being cautious of the hot steam inside.

Step 12

Serve directly in the foil for easy cleanup. Enjoy your meal!
