I came up with this one night when I didn't know what to cook. I had leftover steak in the fridge, so I decided to get creative. These came out wonderful! The measurements are approximations, so feel free to change them according to your tastes. Serve with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.

To make your evening meal go faster, prep these chicken and vegetable packets early in the day and refrigerate until it's time to pop in the oven.
