Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables in your packets to add flavor and nutrition.
  • Season the chicken and vegetables with your favorite herbs and spices.
  • If you are using a thicker vegetable, such as potatoes or carrots, pre-cook them slightly before assembling the packets.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the packets. Leave some space for the food to cook properly.
  • Seal the packets tightly to prevent the juices from leaking out.
  • Cook the packets over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Let the packets cool for a few minutes before opening them.

Hawaiian chicken packets are an easy and delicious way to enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal. They are perfect for busy weeknights or for entertaining guests. With a little planning, you can have a delicious meal on the table in no time.
