Grandma's Secret Trick
Grandma's Secret Trick
Grandma found a quick way to get dinner on the table after a day at work. She arranged the chicken and other ingredients in the foil packets in advance, then refrigerated the packets for several hours. When she was ready to cook, she just popped the packets into the oven.
