"Quick & Easy Packet Cooking in Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil is a laid-back grilling method that delivers results that are anything but laid back," said Pat Schweitzer, senior home economist for The Reynolds Kitchens. "Just place the ingredients on sheets of foil, fold up into packets, throw 'em on the grill and kick back for about 20 minutes. When they're done, slide the packets right onto the plates and prepare for a wave of compliments from your spouse or dinner guests."

Whatever the mood, whatever the occasion...these foil packet recipes for the grill let you strut your stuff:

Re-live spring break in Cancun by grilling a fiesta right in your backyard with Tamale Chicken Packets. Seal all the flavor and nutrients of fresh salsa, green peppers, corn, ripe olives and chicken into a heavy duty foil packet. Top the tender, juicy chicken with crispy, crushed tortilla chips and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese for a festive grilled sensation.

Throwing a beach bash? Fire up the tiki torches, crank up the tunes and don your tropical print shirts when you serve Caribbean Shrimp Packets. This saucy dish combines succulent shrimp, juicy pineapple chunks and crisp red bell peppers seasoned with an arresting fusion of grated ginger and chopped jalapeno peppers. Butter, brown sugar and lemon juice combine for a tangy, sweet sauce that simmers inside the foil packet.

Color your world with the mouth-watering hues of Pepper Steak with Black Beans. The bold, brilliant colors of yellow, green and red peppers, complemented by the aroma of black beans and onions, is a great example of alternative grilling for red meat.

Traditional and smart and done your way can be the theme for this summer's outdoor culinary forays. And nothing melds the best of the old and new for grilling better than Easy Grilled S'Mores — puffy marshmallows and creamy milk chocolate melted between crunchy graham crackers. Best of all, because you make Easy Grilled S'Mores in a foil packet, there's no sticky mess or charred marshmallows with this updated version of a childhood favorite.
