Also known as "campfire meals". My Nana would make these when I was growing up. This meal holds a bounty of nostalgia for me.

Ingredients

1 hour
4 servings
  1. 4Chicken thighs or chicken breasts
  2. 8Red potatoes
  3. 5 smallfrozen corn on the cob
  4. Baby carrots
  5. 8 ozBottle Italian dressing
  6. 1celery or onion if desired
  7. 1 dashMorton Nature's Seasons seasoning blend

Cooking Instructions

1 hour
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F

  2. 2

    Line a large baking dish with foil

  3. 3

    Add thawed chicken to dish, sprinkle top with seasoning

  4. 4

    Rinse potatoes and cut them into four quarters, arrange in dish around chicken.

  5. 5

    Nestle corn around chicken and potatoes in dish

  6. 6

    Throw the baby carrots in, around, and on top of everything. (As many as you like, I use a couple handfuls.)

  7. 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. 8

    Cover everything with the entire 8 oz bottle of Italian dressing.

  9. 9

    Cover with foil and place in oven for about 45 mins.

  10. 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 recipe is very versatile and measurements are mostly estimated. You can add more or less of whatever you like. Feel free to share your ideas!

Was looking at older recipe post and was wondering can you use fresh corn on cob, just break into smaller pieces
