Place one chicken breast and a handful of additional ingredients on each sheet of aluminum foil. Close around edges to make a square shaped parcel which is completely sealed. Now place these parcels on a baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 375 F for around 20 minutes or until fully cooked. Serve this with greens.
