Grilled BBQ Hawaiian Chicken in Foil Packets Recipe


  • Author: Victoria

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Grill: Set your grill to medium heat. This ensures even cooking and caramelization of the BBQ sauce.
  2. Prepare the Foil: Cut two large pieces of aluminum foil. They should be big enough to wrap the chicken and toppings securely.
  3. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the BBQ sauce with olive oil, salt, and pepper. This mixture will add flavor and moisture to the chicken and vegetables.
  4. Assemble the Packets:

    • Place the chicken breasts on the center of each foil piece.
    • Top them with pineapple chunks and slices of bell pepper.

  5. Add the Sauce: Drizzle the BBQ mixture evenly over the chicken, pineapple, and bell pepper.
  6. Seal the Packets: Fold the foil tightly around the ingredients to create a secure packet. This will help steam the chicken and lock in the flavors.
  7. Grill: Place the packets on the grill and cook for 20-25 minutes. Turn them halfway through to ensure even cooking. The chicken should be cooked through and tender.
  8. Serve: Carefully open the packets, allowing the steam to escape. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired and serve hot.
