• 1 bell pepper, chopped

How to Make Foil Packet Feast

1. Preheat

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or heat your grill to medium-high.

2. Prepare the Ingredients

Slice the potatoes thinly so they cook evenly. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces if using chicken.

3. Assemble the Packets

Lay out large sheets of aluminum foil. Add meat, potatoes, and vegetables to the center of each sheet. Drizzle with oil or butter and sprinkle with seasonings.

4. Seal the Packets

Fold the foil tightly around the ingredients, sealing the edges to keep all the juices inside.

5. Cook

• Oven: Bake for 35–40 minutes

• Grill: Cook for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through

6. Serve

Carefully open the packets (watch out for steam!) and serve hot right from the foil.
