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. This cooking time will yield nicely done chicken and vegetables with a little texture. If you prefer your vegetables softer, use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, and cook about 15 minutes longer. For the summer, this recipe will also adapt to the grill—just be sure to use a grill thermostat for best results.
