PICNIC PACKET CHICKEN
Makes 4 packets
The whole picnic meal is ready to serve when these come out of the oven — and there are no portioning and serving problems. Children love this idea. You can also cook this on an outdoor grill.
1 chicken, cut in serving pieces
4 small raw carrots, cut in sticks
4 raw potatoes, quartered
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
4 teaspoons butter or margarine
Preheat oven to 350oF. Tear off 4 pieces heavy duty aluminum foil, approximately 18-inches square. Place 1 or 2 pieces of chicken on each piece of foil. Put one carrot and one potato on each piece of foil. Sprinkle salt, pepper and oregano over all. Add teaspoon of butter or margarine to each. Wrap tightly. Bake for approximately 1 hour or until chicken is cooked through.
