TERIYAKI CHICKEN FOIL PACKETS (MEAL PREP)

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat or the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut four 18 x 12-inch squares of foil* and layout on a flat surface.
• If making the Homemade Teriyaki Sauce:
• In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, cornstarch, and water until combined. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens and bubbles. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Place one chicken breast in the middle of each piece of foil and divide the vegetables evenly into each packet, arranging them around the chicken.
• Drizzle the chicken and vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Brush teriyaki sauce on both sides of the chicken and vegetables - reserving enough for later.
• Fold the foil over the chicken and seal to close off the packets.
• If cooking on the grill
• Place foil packets onto grill and grill for 7-8 minutes, then flip over and grill for an additional 6-8 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chicken) or until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove from the grill and carefully open the foil packets.
• If cooking in the oven Place foil packets on a baking sheet and cook for 25-30 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through, rotating tray once). Time varies depending on the thickness of the chicken. Remove baking sheet from oven.
• Brush chicken with reserved sauce and top with sesame seeds and green onions (if desired) and serve immediately with quinoa, rice or your favorite side.
• For meal prep Divide chicken and vegetables into lunch containers. Add your favorite side.

SHEET PAN CHICKEN TERIYAKI AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and grease with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut the chicken and bell pepper into 1-inch strips. Thinly slice the carrots lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch batons. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
• Transfer the chicken strips to a medium bowl, add the teriyaki sauce and a pinch each of salt and pepper and toss to combine.
• Combine the peppers, carrots, broccoli and sugar snap peas in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper and toss well to combine. Arrange the chicken and vegetables on the prepared baking sheet, spreading them into an even layer with as little overlap as possible.
• Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Divide the chicken and vegetables among serving plates. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve alongside rice or noodles, if desired.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
• Whisk together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the sauce and simmer until it has thickened to the consistency of syrup, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, pour into a small heatproof bowl and let cool. Use right away or refrigerate for up to 3 days.

TERIYAKI FISH AND VEGGIES IN FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lay 2 large sheets of aluminum foil on a work surface.
• Rinse tilapia fillets and pat dry. Rub each fillet with olive oil, season with garlic salt and black pepper, and put in the center of a foil sheet. Add zucchini, bell pepper, and broccoli to each fillet, and pour teriyaki sauce over fish and veggies. Squeeze lemon slices over everything and then put slices in with veggies.
• Carefully seal all edges of the foil to form enclosed packets that won't leak. Place packets onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until vegetables are tender and fish flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.

OVEN-BAKED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut an 18-inch wide roll of heavy-duty aluminum foil into six 12-inch long pieces.
• Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise, so the thickest part is about 1/2 inch thick and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set each seasoned chicken breast onto a single piece of aluminum foil.
• Combine olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add sliced carrots, parsnip, red bell peppers, and mushrooms. Stir to combine vegetables with the seasoned oil. Set an even amount of vegetables on top of each piece of chicken.
• Top vegetables with a whole slice of red onion and place a sprig of fresh rosemary on top of the onion.
• Fold aluminum like a book cover over the top of each serving and crimp the edges all around tightly together.
• Place foil packets with the chicken on the bottom onto a 12x18-inch rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. Watch out for any steam when you check the chicken for doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove foil packets from the oven, open the packets, and serve immediately.

FOIL-WRAPPED TERIYAKI CHICKEN WITH SCALLIONS AND LEMON

Steps:

• Get ready: Arrange 2 shelves in the upper and lower middle areas of the oven at a fair distance from one another; the foil-enveloped chicken will need some room to puff and expand as it cooks. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Make the teriyaki: In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, teriyaki sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, mustard and black pepper.
• Wrap the chicken and vegetables: Spread two 12-inch layers of tinfoil on a flat surface. Fold each piece of foil in half. Open the foil at the seam and use 1 tablespoon of the butter to grease the middle of each. Place the scallions, zucchini and lemon slices in the middle of each. Season the chicken with salt on both sides. Place the chicken in the middle on top of the vegetables. Top with more lemon slices and scallions.
• Fold the two sides of each foil towards the chicken so it is like a large envelope with sealed sides and only the top part is open. There should be enough room left around the sides to allow for the steam to build up as it cooks, like a loose envelope around it. Spoon half of the teriyaki sauce in each of the packets. Close the tops and fold them down 3 to 4 times to ensure they're closed, leaving a little room between the chicken and the foil.
• Cook and serve: Place the chicken on a baking sheet, place in the lower rack of the oven and cook, undisturbed, until the "envelopes" begin to puff, 22 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and poke a thermometer in the center of the chicken breasts to assure they are cooked; they should register 165 degrees F. If not, cook a few minutes more. Remove from the oven, cut open the foil packets and dig in.

GARLIC GRILLED TERIYAKI CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place cut vegetables onto skewers in random order (you may use more or less of any particular veggie; I LOVE the onions!) Brush evenly with teriyaki marinade; sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder and set aside.
• Make about 5 slits in each chicken breast and stuff a clove of garlic inside each slit (large cloves cut in half lengthwise).
• Brush chicken with teriyaki marinade and sprinkle both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Place vegetables and chicken on foil-covered grill at medium heat; turn every few minutes.
• When veggies are cooked through and a little blackened, remove from grill and brush with additional marinade.
• When chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, remove from grill and brush with additional marinade.
