- 4 place a chicken piece over the capsicum on each piece of foil.
- 5 spread over each chicken piece 1/4 of the reamining capsicum pieces. sprinkle over the all-seasoning and the basil.
- 6 fold in the foil and seal in each piece of chicken . the foil should be fully sealed. i usually fold and 'scrunch" in lengthways and then roll up the ends. these should be sealed so that the steam and flavours are fully sealed inches.
- 7 if large chicken pieces are used, you can cut them down the centre to make them 1/2 the thickness. this allows the chicken to cook through quickly and stops it from going tough and chewy.
- 8 if you are unable to fully fold and seal the foil you can add another piece of foil over the top and them seal around all four sides.
- 9 any flavours or herbs can be used.
- 10 cook in the oven, grill, bbq or frying pan. about 5 minutes on each side should be plenty.
- 11 the foil parcel will swell up with steam towards the end of the cooking time. do not release the steam.
- 12 allow to sit for anther minute before opening the parcel to serve.
