Begin by cutting chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes. Cut red bell pepper into 1-inch pieces as well. Dice red onion into small pieces. Open and drain canned pineapple, or if you want to put your knife skills to the test cut and cube your own pineapple. This is a great way to add even more fresh flavor to this dish.
With BBQ Chicken Foil Packs each person can show off their creativity by assembling their own meal. These are a great dinner to take camping as well. Prep and make them the day before you go out into the wilderness. Once you are ready for dinner, pull them out of the ice chest and place your foil pack onto the grill over the campfire. Roast your savory meal until the chicken is cooked thoroughly!
CAN I USE ANOTHER KIND OF MEAT? Yes! Try cutting up pieces of steak for your foil packs. You can also cube pieces of bacon and add to your meal for added savory flavor.
WHAT OTHER VEGETABLES CAN I USE? You can never go wrong with mushrooms, zucchini, squash, potatoes, or carrots. They would all be delicious to try!
SHOULD I MARINATE THE CHICKEN? PRO TIP: If you have time, cube, and marinate the chicken in barbecue sauce the day before assembling. It will infuse your dinner with extra flavor.
