Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 to 8 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 lemons (1 juiced, 1 cut into 4 wedges)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 shallots, sliced 1/4 inch thick
8 sprigs thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Lay out four 18-inch-long sheets of heavy-duty foil on a work surface. Generously season the chicken with salt and pepper. Toss the potatoes, lemon juice, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl.
  • Divide the potatoes and any juices among the foil sheets, mounding them in the middle. Top evenly with the shallots, thyme and lemon wedges. Top each mound with a chicken breast. Brush the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Bring the short ends of the foil together and fold to seal, then fold in the sides.
  • Grill the foil packets seam-side up, 8 minutes. Flip the foil packet, gently press down and continue grilling until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 6 more minutes.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry. I think I would cook it for less time next time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would add more salt and pepper, and maybe some garlic powder.

I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the potatoes were the perfect side dish.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some roasted chicken I had in the fridge and it was delicious.

This recipe is a great starting point, but it needs some tweaking. I would add more herbs and spices to the chicken marinade.

I found this recipe to be too salty. I would recommend using less salt next time.
