Marinate Ahead Freezer Italian Chicken Breasts

Created by Kchurchill5 on September 15, 2013

Step 1: Marinade ... Add 1/4 cup of the salad dressing, 1/8 of the onion thin sliced, 1/2 of a garlic clove, and a pinch of red pepper flakes to a FREEZER ziploc bag; and, 1 chicken breast. Seal, pressing out as much air as possible, and shake or "squish" the bag to combine all the ingredients. I prefer to add only 1 breast per bag; it just seems to work better. But, I then add 4 of the bags into 1 large gallon ziploc bag. They don't get any freezer burn; and hold up very well for 3 months in the freezer. And, the individual bags are perfect for just 1 or 2 people. Simply thaw what you need.
Step 2: Done ... Simply freeze Your bag flat until solid. Then I stack them up until ready to use. Believe it or not. A shoe box or small tupperware box is a great item to use in the freezer. You can stand up frozen bags of soup, sauces, and vegetables; and, keep them organized to save space.
Step 3: Thaw and Cook ... Remove from the freezer, and lay flat in the refrigerator to thaw. I usually do this the night before. Then, in the morning, flip the package over. At dinner time, they are ready to grill. I really love the grill for this; but, an indoor grill pan, would also work very well. Season the chicken with salt and pepper before cooking. Cook using any method you like.
Step 4: Serve and ENJOY! ... They will come out very juicy and moist.
