Lemon pepper chicken and vegetables cooked in a foil pouch on the grill make a delicious and delightful dinner for a warm summer night. These pouches are the perfect way to give your family a well balanced meal without heating up the house.Once again, the process of making these foil pouches is very easy. All you need to do is arrange halved small red potatoes, coins of corn still on the cob, sliced squash, sliced onion, and some baby carrots onto the foil. Sprinkle these with 1/8 teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning, and drizzle with some olive oil.
The vegetables are topped with some 3/4 inch slices of raw chicken breast which is sprinkled with more lemon pepper seasoning. The foil pouches are sealed and placed on the grill.
A few minutes on each side, and you have a delicious dinner sealed in a foil pouch.
You can substitute other vegetables or leave some of these out. One of my children isn’t a big fan of cooked carrots, so I made one of the pouches without carrots.
These foil pouches were a big hit with our family, and we hope you like them, too.
Here’s your printable recipe.

- Arrange ¼ of the chicken on top of the vegetables and sprinkle with ⅛ teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning.
- Seal foil pouch securely for the grill.
- Repeat three more times to make a total of 4 pouches.
