Ingredients

4 thinly sliced chicken breast filets
1 pound fresh green beans
1 medium zucchini (thinly sliced)
1/2 red onion (thinly sliced)
1 large bell pepper (seeded and sliced into rings ( I used 3 small ones that were on sale))
salt
pepper
garlic powder
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
2 tablespoons butter (divided)

Instructions

Preheat the grill to medium-high (about 375° to 400 °F.)
On a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, place the chicken breast in the middle. I really like to use nonstick foil for this, but if you don't have any around, simply spray the foil with a little nonstick cooking spray.
Divide the green beans and sliced veggies into 4 equal amounts and arrange one portion of each on and around the chicken breast. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of the BBQ sauce and place about 1/2 tablespoon of butter on the top. Make a packet by folding the longer ends of the foil over several times, then fold the edges into the middle. Repeat with the other packets. Place on the grill and cook for 10 minutes. Flip then cook 8 to 10 minutes more, or until the chicken is cooked through. This will largely depend on how thick your chicken breasts are. I use ones that are usually about 1/2 inch thick so they cook quickly. Remove from the heat and allow them to rest for about 5 minutes before carefully opening to allow the steam to escape. Roll the edges of the foil back and brush with additional BBQ sauce if desired.
