Camp Cooking

We tried the foil cooking method with skinless, boneless chicken breasts and came up with this recipe that was absolutely great on a thirty degree night with forty mph winds.

Each foil pouch contained:
- 1 medium handful diced potatoes

1/4-inch
- 1 medium handful diced zucchini
- 1 medium handful diced carrots
- 1 tsp Italian dressing
- garlic powder to taste
- sprinkle of dried onion flakes
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 medium handful finely
chopped cilantro (secret ingredient)

Put potatoes, zucchini, and
carrots on foil. Lay chicken
breast on vegetables. Spoon
Italian dressing on chicken.
Sprinkle with garlic and onion
flakes. Spread cilantro on top

of chicken. Seal foil, double thickness if necessary, very tightly. Cook ten to fifteen minutes per side. Serve piping hot (whatever that means!).

My daughter, nine years old the first time we tried this, ate two foil dinners that night. Enjoy!!
