Mediterranean Chicken Parcels Recipes

Steps:

• Cut four pieces of foil about 10 in square. Brush the squares with the oil and set aside until needed.
• With a sharp knife, slash each chicken breast at intervals, then slice the mozzarella and place between the cuts in the chicken.
• Divide the courgettes and tomatoes between the pieces of foil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roughly chop the basil or oregano and scatter over the vegetables in each parcel.
• Place the chicken on top of each pile of veggies then wrap in the foil to enclose the vegetables and chicken, tucking in the ends.
• Place on a cookie sheet and bake in a preheated 400°F oven for about 30 minutes.
• To serve, unwrap each foil parcel and serve with rice or pasta.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200oC. Lightly grease a baking tray.
• Spread each piece of chicken with mustard. Top with camembert and basil.
• Wrap 1 prosciutto slice around each piece.
• Lay 2 sheets of filo flat and spray with oil or brush with butter. Fold in half.
• Top with 1 piece of chicken. Wrap as a parcel.
• Place on prepared baking tray and spray with oil.
• Continue with remaining pastry and chicken. Sprinkle parcels with sesame seeds.
• Bake parcels for 20-25 minutes, until gold and crips.
• Serve with baby spinach leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Whisk olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, vinegar, tarragon, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add chicken thighs, onion, baby bell peppers, and potatoes. Stir until everything is evenly coated.
• Transfer vegetable-chicken mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Scatter lemon slices over the vegetables, making sure to leave the chicken uncovered so that the skin will brown.
• Bake in preheated oven for about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and top with feta, parsley, and olives.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 190°C.
• Mix together garlic, chopped sage, mustard, honey, lemon juice and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Place each chicken breast on foil and drizzle with lemon mixture, top with a piece of sage, and piece of lemon.
• Fold foil to enclose chicken and make parcels.
• Place in a roasting pan and cook for 25 minutes or until cooked through.
• Open chicken parcels, remove sage and lemon and serve, drizzled with sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375*. Cut 4 sheets of foil, about 12 inches square. Place one breast on each, arrange a quarter of the vegetables on top. Prepare seasoning mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, basil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper until combined. Spoon about 1/4 of the seasoning mixture evenly over each chicken and vegetable mound. With the chicken and vegetable mound crosswise on the foil, fold the 2 sides over both ends of the chicken. Fold the nearest edge over the chicken; then fold the farthest edge toward you over the whole parcel so that the end folds underneath the parcel. Bake the parcels in a baking dish for 30-35 minutes. Unwrap each parcel and transfer the chicken and vegetables to a serving platter with the juices. This is good with a wild and white rice and sugar snap peas.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200c/gas 6. Push a metal skewer through the middle of the potatoes and place in the oven.
• Place the Courgettes in the middle of a lightly oiled piece of foil, one piece of foil for each person.
• Cut a pocket in the side of the chicken breast, spread with pesto; tuck in mozzarella. Place on top of courgettes,add tomatoes and wrap the foil over. Fold top; tuck in ends.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place four 12-inch squares of parchment paper or heavy-duty foil on a work surface. Place a chicken breast on one half of each square, leaving a 2-inch border; season with salt and pepper.
• Dividing evenly, top chicken with tomatoes, artichokes, olives, capers, and feta. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and oil. Fold parchment over ingredients, and crimp edges to seal.
• Place packets on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until chicken is opaque throughout, 20 to 22 minutes.

Steps:

• Make four foil packets by the following method, using 1-foot squares of heavy duty aluminum foil: fold square in half and smooth flat. Seal each of the narrow ends by folding over each edge three times to make a 1/4-inch border, smoothing flat after every fold. You should now have a foil packet that is open on one long side. Repeat to form four packets.
• In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, combine the potatoes, chicken cubes, red peppers, onion, celery, and barbeque sauce; mix well. Evenly divide the mixture among the foil packets. Roll up the open end of the packets to seal.
• Place packets on a grill over the coals of a fire. Cook until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is fully cooked, about 25 minutes, depending on the intensity of the heat.
