Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine chili sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, and ginger; blend well.
2. Place one-quarter of the yams and pepper strips in the center of each of four 18" x 12" pieces of foil.
3. Top each pile with one chicken drumstick and one chicken thigh.
4. Spoon the chili sauce mixture over each packet and wrap securely using double-fold seals.
5. Place packets seam-side down on a hot grill (gas on medium-high or charcoal 4–6" from medium-high coals).
6. Cook 40–50 minutes or until the yams are fork-tender and the chicken is cooked through, turning the packets once during cooking.
7. Open packets carefully, as hot steam will escape.
8. Optional: About 15 minutes before the end of cooking time, brush the chili sauce mixture onto whole roasted chicken or baked chicken parts.
