Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450g) of your choice of protein (chicken, beef, sausage, or shrimp)
- Assorted vegetables (bell peppers, onions, zucchini, corn, baby potatoes)
- Olive oil or butter
- Seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, herbs)
- Optional extras: cheese, bacon bits, hot sauce
Instructions
- Start by chopping vegetables and proteins into bite-sized pieces, ensuring even sizes for consistent cooking. Drizzle with olive oil or melt butter over the ingredients.
- Lay out large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place the prepared ingredients in the center of each sheet. Season generously with salt, pepper, and herbs. Add cheese or extras if desired.
- Fold the foil over the ingredients to create a sealed packet. Ensure edges are tightly sealed to trap steam and flavors.
- Place the foil packets directly onto a preheated grill or over a campfire. Cook for 20-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until ingredients are tender and cooked through. Use a food thermometer to check internal temperatures if needed.
Notes
- Customize the filling with your favorite ingredients or dietary preferences.
- For best results, use heavy-duty foil for durability and easy handling.
- You can assemble the packets ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Ensure proper sealing to avoid leaking during cooking.
