Baked Zucchini and Chicken Foil Packets

A very tasty and healthy dish, treat yourself and your friends! From the many recipes for cooking zucchini, I decided to try baking them in foil. I looked through several recipes, chose where I just needed to cut them, and then lay out a layer of chopped meat, sprinkle with grated cheese and bake in foil. But for some reason my soul wanted more beauty and on a grand scale, so other ingredients were used. The recipe is simple — we make large zucchini sandwiches, put vegetables on them, like on pizza, and bake them. Since I wanted to fill the remaining space with potatoes, I also added tomato paste and dill to it, but you can do without it. This makes a delicious vegetable casserole with zucchini and chicken fillet.

Cut enough foil to line the bottom of the baking sheet and then cover the zucchini loosely.

Slice the tomatoes 0.5 cm thick and cut them in half. Spread the tomatoes in a thick layer. At this stage you also need to add salt.

But I decided to fill the remaining spaces on the baking sheet with potatoes. Cut the potatoes into slices, add salt, add tomato paste, chopped onions and dill. Mix well in a plate.

Step 11

Step 11
We place the potatoes in the spaces between the zucchini, and also distribute pieces of melted butter throughout the baking sheet onto the potatoes. Although the vegetables should be baked under foil in their own juices, I added water for the potatoes, as they may turn out a little dry.

Step 12

Step 12
Cover with foil, but do not press it onto the zucchini on top, as the cheese will melt and stick to the foil. Place in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for about 40-60 minutes. Check the readiness by checking the potatoes; out of all the vegetables, they took the longest to bake for me.

Step 13

Step 13
Carefully remove the foil; if the cheese is stuck to it, carefully remove it.

Step 14

Step 14
Zucchini baked in foil in the oven is ready! Carefully move them onto the platter and call everyone to the table.

Step 15
Cut the zucchini into portions and add the potatoes. Bon appetit everyone!
