Taco Chicken


This is an easy recipe. You can double the recipe and freeze the extra packages for later. This is also a great camping recipe as you can put the packages in a campfire or barbecue.

Prep:  10 min.  Total:  50 min..

4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 lb.)
4 teaspoons Taco Seasoning Mix
½ lb. red potatoes, peeled, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
½ cup Chunky Salsa
¾ cup  Shredded Four Cheese Mexican Style Cheese
¼ cup Sour Cream

Preheat oven to 400ºF.  Sprinkle chicken with seasoning mix. Place ½ cup of
the potatoes on center of each of 4 large sheets of heavy-duty foil; top evenly
with chicken, salsa and cheese.

Bring up foil sides.  Double fold top and both ends to seal each packet,
leaving room for heat circulation inside. Place in 15x10x1 inch baking pan.

Bake 30 to 35 min. or until chicken is cooked through (165ºF).  Remove packets
from oven.  Let stand 5 min.  Cut slits in foil to release steam before
opening.  Serve with sour cream.

Makes 4 servings, 1 packet each.

2 tablespoons lemon juice
dash of Tabasco
1/4 teaspoon salt 
1/8 teaspoon pepper 
Stir all ingredients together an enjoy.
