Prepare these chicken and veggie packets early in the day and store in the refrigerator until you’re ready to bake them for dinner to speed up the process. This amount of cooking time will result in well cooked chicken and slightly crunchy vegetables. Use boneless, skinless chicken thighs and simmer for about 15 minutes longer if you prefer your vegetables softer. This recipe is also suitable for grilling in the summer; however, for optimal results, use a grill thermostat.

Add MIO or Stevia for a sugar free fruity flavor. Mojito Lite.
Great, but when I make again, I will decrease the sugar just a bit. Used 3/4 of a lime cut into quarters instead of 1/2, and muddled the mint thoroughly. Delicious drink!
Yummy!! Nice base for creating…I didn’t have white rum or club soda…so, used Cherry Rum and Gingerale and less sugar. I also added 4 fresh blackberries when I muddled the lime wedges & mint…..WOW!!
This is a fun and refreshing drink to make. I only had Spiced Rum instead of the light rum, but it turned out fine. I don’t eat a lot of sugar, so I only used 1 tablespoon. It was still tangy and refreshing.
It tasted wonderful and was so easy to make!
Two tablespoons of white sugar? Yes, please 🙂 While this is a bit on the sweet side, I did enjoy it. I can’t say that I’ll make it again, but I enjoyed it while it lasted. I used bottled lime juice, so I’d imagine fresh would even kick it up a notch. CHEERS, Allrecipes!
