Preparation for
Chicken Foil Packets with a touch of heat
- Set the temperature in your oven to 350 degrees.
- The chicken should then be pounded out to the required thickness before being seasoned with chili powder, garlic salt, salt, and pepper. Now, lay out four pieces of heavy-duty foil wrapped in Reynolds Wrap measuring approximately 16 inches apiece, one piece for each breast. On top of each chicken breast, add beans, corn, peppers, and salsa to the pieces of foil that have been prepared with the chicken breasts. After that, wrap each one in the foil like it’s a gift. Fold the top portion, leaving room between the layers so that heat may circulate. By twice folding, you will ensure that the ends are completely sealed. You want to make sure that the packages are completely sealed, but not overly so. There must be space available within the packets for the steam to circulate. Continue doing so until all of them are wrapped.
- Now set the packets on a sheet pan and bake them in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for thirty minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Open the packages with care and top with the toppings of your choice.

Review
You can have a meal that is low in carbs and high in protein straight from the box, or you can add tortillas or rice to create a new favorite Mexican-inspired dish. It is quite tasty and satiating all at the same time.
It gets a perfect score and five stars from me. I would also encourage that people give it a shot.
