We recently purchased a BUNCH of chicken from a wholesale deal. So, chicken recipes are gonna show up! My friends and I prepared approximately 20 meals for the freezer, all of which were new recipes.
Our first recipe was Spicy Sweet Glazed "Dump" Chicken. "Dump" refers to the fact that you just dump all the ingredients into a bag and freeze it. Then, on cooking day, you just dump it into a pan and bake!
This recipe went over pretty well. Lil G liked it (dipped in ketchup, of course). Greg also said that it was "good". When I pressed him to tell me the definition of a "great" meal, he indicated that it would be primarly comprised of bacon. Quite a tall order to turn chicken into bacon but perhaps....one day!
Spicy Sweet Glazed "DUMP" Chicken
2 Teaspoons Minced Garlic
2/3 cup Apricot Preserves
1/3 cup Soy Sauce
1/3 cup Ketchup
1 Teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
1 1/2 Pounds Chicken Pieces
For immediate cooking: Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Place all ingredients into a
large baking dish, turn chicken to coat. Bake until chicken juices run
clear (45-60 minutes for chicken pieces, or 20-30 minutes for chicken
breasts).
For freezing: Place all ingredients into a 1 Gallon freezer bag. Lay flat
in freezer.
To thaw and cook: Take the bag out of the freezer the night before, make
sure the baggie is completely closed. Place the Bag on a shelf furthest
from the freezer (It works best if the bag is laying flat, although this
may not be the best option with a side-by-side fridge/freezer). Preheat the
oven to 350 F. Empty the contents of the bag into a large baking dish and
bake until the juices run clear (45-60 minutes for chicken pieces, or 20-30
minutes for chicken breasts).
