Vegetable Options for Cheesy Ranch Chicken Foil Packets:
This recipe is also easily customizable for picky eaters. You can mix and match veggies to your liking. The key is to ensure that the vegetables used are cut into pieces that can cook thoroughly in the allotted cooking time. Options include
Broccoli (cut small)Potatoes (small dice or thinly sliced)ZucchiniMushroomsBell PeppersRed OnionAsparagus (thin)Whole Garlic Cloves
Potato Tips:
Red and golden potatoes with thin, edible skins are best for foil packets. When using potatoes, be sure to cut your potatoes into small pieces (less than 1/2 inch) so that they cook at the same rate as the chicken. Alternately, you can also thinly slice them. If you leave the potato pieces too big, you’re going to be left with a part crunchy and raw potato, and nobody likes that.
Storage and Reheating Instructions:
Store any leftovers in an airtight container, or in your piece of tinfoil if it is still in one piece, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Remove from foil if using for storage, and microwave in 30 second increments until warmed through, approximately 90 seconds.
