Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1-inch pieces
  • 2 cups barbecue sauce
  • 2 cups drained pineapple tidbits
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small red onion, diced

Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Cut 4 large sheets of foil; arrange singly on flat surface.
  • Step 
    2
    In medium bowl, toss together 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1-inch pieces, and 2 cups barbecue sauce until chicken is fully coated.
  • Step 
    3
    Divide chicken pieces evenly among sheets of foil. Divide 2 cups drained pineapple tidbits, 1 bell pepper, diced, and 1 small red onion, diced, evenly over chicken on foil sheets.
  • Step 
    4
    Bring up 2 sides of foil over chicken so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space on sides for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  • Step 
    5
    Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). To grill, place foil packs on preheated grill. Cook 10 minutes. Turn packs over; cook 10 to 15 minutes longer or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F).

  • If desired, garnish your baked BBQ chicken with chopped fresh cilantro.
  • If you don't have red bell pepper on hand, you can easily substitute green or yellow bell pepper.
  • To prevent your food from sticking to the foil while it cooks, spray the inside of your BBQ chicken foil packs with cooking spray.
  • To help minimize tears and leakage, use heavy-duty aluminum foil and seal your packs carefully.
  • Turning your foil packs during baking is essential for evenly cooked barbecue chicken.
