One of my favorite dinners to cook in the summer is grill packets! They are super easy to make, can be prepared in advance, and give you a great excuse to sit around the fire pit at the end of the night. You don’t even have to get any plates dirty if you don’t want to. These Pesto Chicken Grill Packets are great to take along on a picnic or camping or even just to have in your own back yard. They can also be cooked on a regular gas grill or in the oven. My 9-year-old loved these and has already asked me to make them again. Enjoy!

I am curious, the cook time at the top of the recipe says 10 minutes, but the instructions say to cook for 8-9 minutes each side, which totals 16-18 minutes cooking time. Which is correct? Also, should this be cooking on a medium grill temp or something else?
Hi. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll have that corrected. It is 8-9 minutes each side or until cooked through.
lovely and delicious. I have been looking for a promising recipe to experiment my new food processor I bought from a guide

What is nutritional information on this recipe?
Hello, Shirley. We do not provide nutrition details. We just focus on getting rid of the processed stuff and eating a wide variety of healthy whole foods.
This looks great. I recently bought some non-stick foil for the grill that worked really well. The food browned but did not stick at all. We love foil packets!
How about some kosher recipes for those of us who observe the Jewish dietary laws?
Chicken and cheese are a No, No for those who keep kosher.
Hello. Thanks for the suggestion.
what a great idea, genius even when I think about the relatively easy individual servings with these, thank you for this very inspired recipe! I love all of these flavors and especially the pesto, and chicken thighs please!
This looks great! I can’t wait to try this recipe. How do I cook these in the oven?
I typically do foil packets in the oven at 400 for 20-25 minutes.
This looks fantastic. I always want veggies, but husband hates dealing with them on the grill. A nice little foil packet should do the trick.
What temp and how long would you chill these in the oven? Thanks!

These look so easy and delicious! I can’t wait to be able to grill again!
