I can't take credit for this recipe... I grew up on it! I love this dish because it tastes like a million bucks, but is inexpensive to make. Plus, you can customize it. Love carrots? Add more. Rather use chicken legs? No problem. It is perfect for warming up with on a cool day, too!

How To Make mom's chicken in foil

Step 1

Prep first: Preheat oven to 425*. Clean/peel and chop veggies. If not using fresh chicken, dethaw. Once thawed, wash off chicken.

Step 2

Place a large sheet of aluminum foil (enough to completely cover bottom AND fold over top to seal) in a 9x13 baking dish. Carefully press the foil down in the corners and along sides. Be sure not to rip it.
Step 3

Place chicken in dish. Arrange vegetables around chicken. Combine onion soup mix and water and mix well. (I like to use a lidded cup and shake it up!) Fold the foil over to seal, and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Pour the mixture over the chicken and vegetables.
