Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 375°F
- 2
Line a large baking dish with foil
- 3
Add thawed chicken to dish, sprinkle top with seasoning
- 4
Rinse potatoes and cut them into four quarters, arrange in dish around chicken.
- 5
Nestle corn around chicken and potatoes in dish
- 6
Throw the baby carrots in, around, and on top of everything. (As many as you like, I use a couple handfuls.)
- 7
If you are using onion or celery, add it now. Not much should be needed. A stalk or two of celery and maybe half an onion.
- 8
Cover everything with the entire 8 oz bottle of Italian dressing.
- 9
Cover with foil and place in oven for about 45 mins.
- 10
At this point I increased the temperature to 400 and cooked about 30 to 40 minutes longer. Until potatoes and carrots are cooked through and chicken is done-no pink! Adjust this as needed, times are approximate. Maybe even try uncovering it for the last little bit.

This method is for the oven but this can be made over an actual campfire with just a few modifications. 😊 Individual servings can be wrapped in aluminum foil packets, which is fun and makes cleanup a breeze.Again, like most of my recipes, measurements are approximate and this recipe can definitely be made your own.

Hobo Hush puppies Hobo Hush puppies
This makes a lot of hush puppies if using small scoops. May make as big or small as you like. I use a very small ice cream scoop. I think it is a tablespoon size scoop. It makes them bite size. But you can use soup or teaspoon to drop in oil as well. Raven -

Hamburger Soup Hamburger Soup
When it’s chilly, I serve my family warm and hearty bowls of this hamburger soup. This is a great dish to make for a crowd, or make it on the weekend and eat it all week. You can also spice it up a bit by adding some chile or cayenne powder.If you have other veggies that need to be used up, this soup is the perfect place to put them. Zucchini, sweet potato, beans? Put ‘em in the pot! You can also serve the soup over leftover rice or pasta.This recipe was modified from the Food Network#GlobalApron - Week 35.
