CHICKEN EN PAPILLOTE WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Cut chicken across into 1/2-inch slices. Combine oil, oregano, thyme, lemon peel and juice, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Add chicken and toss to thoroughly coat.
• Combine asparagus, pea pods, artichoke hearts, tomatoes and parsley in a large bowl and set aside.
• Tear 4 20x2 inch pieces of parchment, fold in half crosswise, crease, open up again, and arrange 1/4 vegetable mixture on paper. Top with 1/4 of chicken and 1/4 of the green onions. Now make into a little package by folding the parchment over so the corners match up and crimping and folding the edges over. Twist corners to secure. Repeat 3 more times so you have 4 packets.
• Place 2 packets on a baking sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until chicken is done.

MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a small bowl, whisk mustard, vinegar, and a pinch each of sugar, salt, and pepper together. Continue to whisk while slowly drizzling olive oil in until completely combined.
• Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Cut 4 pieces of parchment paper into 16-by-18-inch pieces. Fold each sheet in half lengthwise, then open and place on a work surface. Divide asparagus evenly among the four pieces of parchment; place them on the left side of the fold near the crease, centered evenly between the top and bottom of the parchment paper. Place a chicken breast on top of each bed of asparagus. Drizzle with about 1 tablespoon vinaigrette. Top chicken breasts with tomatoes, olives, artichokes, basil, and feta. Drizzle each with about 1 tablespoon more vinaigrette.
• Fold the right half of one parchment paper over contents and, starting with the top right corner, form a half-moon packet making small but tight pleats all the way around to seal completely. Repeat process to form remaining packets.
• Transfer the packets to rimmed baking sheets and cook for 25 to 28 minutes. To serve, place packets directly on each of four plates and use kitchen shears or a sharp knife tip to open packets at the table.
