Trim the woody part off the asparagus, then cut the asparagus pieces in half. Slice the potatoes into quarters.
Place two large sqaure pieces of foil on top of each other, one for each chciken breast. Place a chicken breast on top of the foil. Slice the butter into pieces and add it on top of the chicken breasts. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place potatoes and asparagus around the chicken splitting them evenely between the chicken.. Pour marinade over chicken and vegetables. roll the edges of the foil pouch up to close.
Place the pouches on the grill or campfire for 20-30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Potatoes should be tender, and the chicken should be cooked all the way through. Let cool for a few minutes, then enjoy!
Notes
It is better to underfill these camping packets than overfill. If the packets are becoming too full, split them between more pieces of foil.
Swap 3-4 cloves of fresh garlic for the minced garlic
Thicker asparagus about the width of a finger works better in this recipe. Thin asparagus will overcook. If you have thin asparagus I recommend cooking it in a separate piece of foil so as not to overcook for 10-15 minutes. You can add a couple tablespoons of the marinade to the foil before cooking for flavor.
Sometimes instead of salt and pepper, I swap in a little bit of an all purpose seasoning. Nature's Bounty and Everything But The Bagel Seasoning are both delicious!
You can bake these campfire packets in the oven at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 and the potatoes are fork tender.
