I have made this twice now and I highly recommend this recipe. It is super easy and no mess. I did make a few adjustments see after the recipe.
Santa Fe Chicken Packets
Chicken breasts topped with black beans, corn and zesty
tomatoes, cooked in foil packets on the grill for an easy summertime meal
Hands On: 10 | Total: 30 | Makes: 4 servings (1
packet each)
Ingredients:
▪
1 can (15 oz each) Rosarita® Premium Whole Black Beans, drained,
rinsed
▪
2 cups frozen whole kernel corn
▪
1 can (10 oz each) Ro*Tel® Original Diced Tomatoes & Green
Chilies, drained

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

PAM® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray
▪
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (5 oz each)
▪
1/2 cup shredded reduced fat Mexican cheese blend
Directions
1. Preheat outdoor grill
to medium-high heat according to manufacturer's directions. Stir together
beans, corn, drained tomatoes and cumin in medium bowl.
2. Place four 18x12-inch
pieces of heavy foil on counter. Spray each with cooking spray. Place 1 breast
in center on each piece of foil. Spoon 1/4th bean mixture over chicken for each
packet. Bring up short sides of each foil packet and double fold top. Double
fold both ends to seal each packet, leaving space for steam to gather.

Cook's Tips
Packets
may be baked on shallow pan in 425°F oven 20 minutes or until chicken is no
longer pink in centers. Or, to save aluminum foil, place chicken in 13x9-inch
baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Spoon bean mixture over chicken; cover
dish with aluminum foil. Bake in 375°F oven 30 minutes or until chicken is no
longer pink in centers.
Recipe From: Ready Set Eat
Adjustments:
- I seasoned my chicken with a little salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and minced onion. I put all four pieces in one Foil Packet.
- To make a little less spicy I just used Diced tomatoes( instead of with green chiles) I made both ways and they were great.
- Served with Spanish rice.
- Topped with Sour Cream.
Happy Cooking!
