    List of Ingredients




    4 skinless boneless chicken breast
    1 large carrot, julienne
    1 small zucchini, julienne
    1 small red bell pepper, julienne
    1 clove garlic, fine minced
    1 shallot, fine dice
    1/4 cup white wine
    1/4 cup defatted chicken stock
    basil, oregano and pepper to taste

    4 rectangles 12" long parchment paper
    or heavy duty tin foil

    Recipe



    Combine garlic, shallot, wine, stock and seasonings in a bowl, mix well. Add chicken and marinate at least 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 375ºF. Place sheet of paper or foil on a flat surface and spray center lightly with oil. Drain marinade from chicken and place breast in center of sheet. Place vegetables on top of chicken and spray with more oil if desired. Fold paper, "butcher style," by bringing the long sides to the middle, place them flat against each other and fold them down (like a potato chip bag) crimping each layer tightly until folded down to the food.

    Then fold and crimp the sides the same way. if the sides do not stay closed, you can use a staple to secure them, just be careful when serving. Place the bundles on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Allow to cool a few minutes and then cut them open. You can either dish the contents out or serve them in the bundles.

    Serving Suggestions: This recipe used chicken but you can substitute with any meat, poultry or seafood. You can also change the marinade and the vegetables to suite your fancy. A salad and a side dish of rice or couscous go really nicely with this dish to round out this meal.
