15. Starting at the top, seal the packet by folding the edges together in a series of small, tight folds.

17. Place the packets on a large rimmed baking sheet (packets may overlap slightly).
18. Bake until the vegetables are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 165F, about 25 minutes.
