Ingredients

  • 2 pork chops (7 ounces each), trimmed
  • 2 sheets heavy-duty aluminum foil (18 inches x 12 inches)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

Directions

  • Place each pork chop in the center of a piece of foil. Sprinkle with garlic powder and pepper. Top with zucchini, carrots and onion. Sprinkle with basil. Bring opposite long edges of foil together over the top of vegetables and fold down several times. Fold the short ends toward the food and crimp tightly to prevent leaks. Place foil pouches on a baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 45-55 minutes or until pork juices run clear and vegetables are tender. Yield: 2 servings.
