Dutch Oven Chicken and Veggies

This Dutch Oven Chicken and Veggies recipe is super easy to make on your next camping trip. You can also make it at home in the backyard!

We aren’t really camping people but we do love to Dutch oven cook! It seems like if it’s a special occasion, we whip out the Dutch ovens and cook something yummy!

At the end of May, two of my daughters have birthdays. Since we try to make their favorite on this day, this is what was requested.

We have been making this recipe since my older kids were little. There was even a time when I forgot plates and we used whatever we could. It makes memories, right?

This recipe is so simple but feels like you are preparing a gourmet meal. It has proven this over the years!
