Campfire Chicken Dinner

Campfire Chicken Dinner

 

Chicken halves
Baby Red potatoes
Red onions
Baby carrots
Corn on the Cob
Tomatoes
Salt and Pepper
Spices of your choice

You will need large pieces of the Heavy Duty Aluminum foil for this recipe. You will need 1 piece for each person eating.
Salt, pepper and spice the pieces of foil. Place a chicken half MEATY SIDE down in the spices. Arrange potatoes, carrots, and corn on the cob around the chicken. Cut onions and tomatoes into wedges or slices, whichever you prefer and place on top. Close the aluminum foil well so all juices will stay contained.
Either grill this or bake in a 325°F oven until all is tender.
The slower you cook this, the more tender and flavorful it will be.
