Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut 4 large pieces of aluminum foil, about 12x12 inches.
- In a large bowl, combine the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, onion, bell peppers, garlic, olive oil, dried thyme, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly with the seasonings.
- Divide the vegetable mixture evenly among the foil pieces, placing it in the center.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place one chicken breast on top of each pile of vegetables.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, barbecue sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Drizzle the sauce over each chicken breast and vegetables.
- Fold the sides of the foil over the chicken and vegetables, sealing each packet tightly.
- Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
- Carefully open the foil packets, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
