CHICKEN & ASPARAGUS FOIL PACKS

This grilled chicken and asparagus foil pack recipe is full of flavor and color. They are seasoned with garlic, onion, paprika, and a dash of cayenne pepper. It’s all done cooking in just 20 minutes!

Chicken foil packets are fantastic! I cannot think of an occasion where these quick yet delicious surprises would not work.

As soon as it is asparagus season (which is now!), I look forward to making this recipe and lots of it. I prepare the chicken foil pack, pop them in the freezer and they are ready to go for the next meal.
