Top with butter or oil and fresh herbs.

Season heavily with salt and pepper, about 1/2 teaspoon of salt for each packet.

To cook in oven: Preheat oven to 400°F and cook for 20 minutes or until meat is cooked through and veggies are soft.

Carefully open up foil packets as the steam inside is very hot. You can eat straight out of the foil or dump contents onto a plate.
