4-Ingredient Foil Packet Chicken Dinner
This easy foil-wrapped dinner is perfect for busy nights — juicy chicken, tender potatoes, and buttery flavor all steamed together in one packet.
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts (or 4 chicken thighs)
4 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
1 packet onion soup mix
4 tbsp butter
Optional extras
Shredded cheese
Garlic powder
Green beans or carrots
Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Tear off 2 large sheets of aluminum foil.
Divide sliced potatoes between the foil sheets.
Place chicken on top of the potatoes.
Sprinkle onion soup mix evenly over everything.
Add 2 tbsp butter on top of each packet.
Wrap tightly in foil so steam stays inside.
Bake for 35–45 minutes until chicken is fully cooked and potatoes are tender.
Carefully open packets (hot steam!) and serve immediately.
Serving Ideas
Add shredded cheddar during the last 5 minutes.
Serve with a simple salad or bread.
Great cooked on the grill too.
