SERVING SIZE
1 chicken breast + 1/2 cup bean mixture
COOK TIME
15 Min

Whether you're at a barbecue, camping out, or just having a fun camp-style dinner at home, you're going to love these Campfire Chicken Packets. We stuffed foil packets with chicken, beans, corn, tomato, and a sprinkle of cheese, so you can enjoy a flavorful meal without any mess!

What You'll Need

  • 1 (15-ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tomato, chopped
  • 1/2 cup corn
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat, shredded, Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 scallion, sliced

What to Do

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine beans, tomato, corn, cumin, and chili powder; mix well. Place each chicken on a piece of foil, about 16- x 12-inches, and evenly divide bean mixture on top of chicken. Loosely fold foil over chicken and seal edges.
  3. Place foil packets on grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until no longer pink in center.
  4. Carefully open packets and sprinkle with cheese and scallion. Serve immediately.

Notes

Don't have a grill, it's raining, or just prefer to make these in your oven? No problem! Just bake them at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes.

Sounds good but do you rinse and drain the beans before using?

Yes, thanks for catching that! We've added that instruction to the recipe. Enjoy!
