Ingredients

  •  chicken breast uncooked coarsely chopped (not breaded)
  • tablespoons sriracha old el paso®
  • 0.3 cup onion 
  • 0.3 cup poblano pepper chopped
  • 0.3 cup bell pepper red yellow chopped

Equipment

  • grill
  • aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Heat gas or charcoal grill. Tear off 12-inch length of heavy-duty foil to make packet. Lightly spray 1 side of foil (side that will be inside of packet) with canola oil cooking spray.
  2. In center of foil, place chicken, bell pepper, chile and onion. Spoon cooking sauce over top. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space on sides for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
