I love making foil packets for on the grill.  No muss, no fuss.  No dirty pans to clean.  Chicken stays moist and tender.  Add a side salad and dinner is served.

For this recipe, you first rub the chicken with blend of spices and then add a homemade BBQ sauce before sealing it up and putting it on the grill for 15-20 minutes.

That's all there is to it....Easy, Peasy and Delicious.  The perfect meal to allow you to enjoy your family time with the family instead of in the kitchen.
