BBQ Foiled Chicken #SundaySupper

BBQ Foil Chicken

Today’s #SundaySupper is being hosted by Hip Foodie Mom (go check out her gorgeous website full of delicious family recipes) and is so much fun! Your going to love what the #SundaySupper community is serving up because it’s all about scrumptious, mouthwatering and tempting 5 ingredient (or less) recipes. Quick, easy and delicious– Does it get any better then that???

So what is MealDiva bringing to the table? I’m bringing one of my classic dishes: BBQ Foiled Chicken.

First, I have to apologize for the photograph: I had to use my phone because my three year old has been playing with my real camera and now it’s not working right…

On to tasty chicken for #SundaySupper:

Anyone who knows me, knows that I love a good cooking challenge. And so, when a few of my friends challenged me to come up with a “no mess,” MealDiva Approved dinner, I went to work. I debated using the grill but couldn’t come up with a way to avoid dirtying at least one plate. Then it finally it hit me: aluminum foil! Almost any kind of food can be prepared in foil. It’s one of the best inventions ever. In fact, after I delivered on this “no mess” dinner challenge, I was asked to write a few more recipes that could also be cooked in foil. My friends and family have voted this one to be the easiest and the tastiest so I wanted to share. Please give it a whirl! It’s only 5 ingredients and no pots and pans required!

BBQ Foiled Chicken with Corn and Black Beans

Ingredients

  • Chicken drumsticks and thighs (2- 3 chicken’s worth)
  • 4 ears of corn
  • 1 tbs. salted butter, divided
  • 1-cup tangy BBQ sauce
  • 1 14oz can of black beans, rinsed and drained

Directions:

  1. Heat Oven to 450
  2. Cut foil into 4 sheets, 12X20 inches.
  3. Spray foil with PAM so the food doesn’t stick.
  4. Place 1 drumstick and 1 thigh on each foil sheet.
  5. In between the chicken pieces, add the corn.
  6. Season with a little salt and pepper (just a sprinkle).
  7. Add ¼ of the butter to the top of each corn piece.
  8. Spoon black beans around chicken and corn.
  9. Spoon BBQ sauce over chicken and beans.
  10. Fold the foil around the chicken and corn and loosely seal it.
  11. Place packets onto a cookie sheet.
  12. Bake for 45 minutes, making sure chicken is done (about 165 degrees) before removing.
  13. Serve with a side salad and you are all set! No fuss, no muss!

  2. Since it is cold and rainy here this looks like a great way for me to enjoy the BBQ flavours of summer without having to use the grill in the rain. 🙂

  3. Jen, I love the idea of a whole meal in a foil packet! All those wonderful flavors mingling makes for a wonderful dinner!

  4. I am totally addicted to using aluminum foil in my kitchen. When it runs out, I’m in a panic! 😉 Love that you made your dish with it this week; easy clean up!

  5. Great recipe aside, I’m loving the use of foil packets (which means less cleanup and sealing in all the moisture and flavors.
