JUICY CHICKEN BREASTS BAKED FROM FROZEN

How many times have you forgotten to thaw those chicken breasts you've got stashed away before it's time to make dinner? Sure, you could double-bag the chicken and soak it in a hot water bath until thawed, but that still takes time and can get messy. Instead, follow this recipe to bake them straight from the freezer. You'll end up with juicy chicken coated in a crisp layer of breadcrumbs. Just make sure you freeze your chicken breasts in a flat layer so they don't stick together -- the recipe won't work with a big clump!

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Add the mayonnaise, Dijon, parsley and garlic to a small bowl and stir to combine. Add the breadcrumbs, olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper to another bowl and stir until combined.
  • Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Dividing evenly, brush the mayonnaise mixture all over the top and sides of each piece. Top the mayo-covered areas with the panko mixture and press to adhere.
  • Bake until the coating is golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of each breast registers 165 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes.

2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves and tender stems
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 individually frozen boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 8 ounces each)

MAKE-AHEAD FREEZER CHICKEN PARMESAN

My family loves chicken Parm but making it from scratch on a busy school night is next to impossible. The good news is the chicken can be made ahead and frozen along with the right portion of sauce and cheese for a quick weeknight meal. Serve with pasta and Caesar salad.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Pound chicken breasts to 1/2-inch thickness or less.
  • Place beaten egg in a bowl. Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder in another bowl. Dip each chicken breast in egg, then roll in bread crumb mixture to coat evenly. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Turn and continue to cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 10 minutes more. Let cool, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Freeze in a 1-gallon resealable bag with smaller bags of tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese.
  • To serve: Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat chicken at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) until heated through and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Top chicken with tomato sauce, sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, and bake until cheese is melted, an additional 3 minutes.
