Quick 30-minute chicken and veggies flavored with Cajun seasoning, garlic, and olive oil. These flavorful flavor packs are super healthy and make a delicious low-carb dinner.
I’m always in the search for quick and simple dinners that are 30 minutes or less. Foil pack dinners are always a great option when you just want a healthy and quick dinner without the bells and whistles. It’s as easy as combining all the ingredients, folding them in foil and baking. Of course, you can always grill them too if it’s summertime or you have access to a grill.
The result is FLAVORFUL and tender chicken and veggies thanks to the vibrant cajun seasoning. The olive oil and garlic make this flavor-packed dish even better. If you’re trying to lose weight or on a low-carb diet, I suggest you eat the chicken and veggies straight out of the foil with a fork. If you want to make this a complete dinner, I suggest serving with cooked brown rice or quinoa or a side of mashed potatoes.

I am very ready to start learning to make pizza dough and I would love to bake pizza in this most amazing oven. I have a countertop oven at home, not anywhere near as nice as this one, and I use it exclusively. I live alone and using a big oven isn’t necessary. Thanks for the chance to own something I can’t afford to buy! This recipe is going on my dinner for this week list for sure! YUMMY
I’d definitely like to try the Cajun Chicken and veggies !
I would roast a whole Chicken and with Baked Potato’s.
