Lemon Herb Foil Chicken

This recipe was adapted from a recipe for kabobs, but I couldn't find the skewers, and life got crazy, and I ended up doing it this way.

You need:

Boneless chicken, cut into peices. I like thighs or breasts.
1 vidalia onion
1 large green or red pepper
about 16 broccoli florets
1 pineapple, cut into chunks (1 can of chunk pineapple OK)
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon basil (I used dried, worked fine)
1/2 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste

Aluminum foil.

I have one of those cool racks for grilling veggies, and it works like a bowl. I recommend them; gets the taste of the grill, and easier to clean than the grate. I set two layers of foil in that, so it makes my packet for me pretty much. Into the foiled grill rack I put the chicken, onion, pepper, and broccoli.

In a small bowl, mix the juice, oil, and spices. Mix well. Pour over the chicken and veggies.

Seal up the packet by pulling the sides of the foil over. Don't make it too tight, or the food won't cook properly.

I'm not a great griller. My idea of grilling is to pile a bunch of charcoal inteh middle of my webber and light it, and see what happens. That's what I did with this. When the fire died down and coals were good and hot, I put my little packet in the middle over the coals, put the top on the grill, and went away for about 45 minutes. When I broguth it in, it was cooked and wonderful. I served it over pasta. This is a very mild recipe- no kick at all, so if you have a kid who can't take any kind of spicy food, this recipe is for you!
