In a small bowl, mix together the dried Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables in each packet.

Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice evenly over the chicken and vegetables in all packets.

Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over each packet for a burst of freshness.

Step 10

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