CHEESY CHICKEN BUNDLES- OAMC



Cheesy Chicken Bundles- OAMC image

You just cant go wrong with this tasty chicken dish. I would be proud to serve it to company, and yet it is so easy that it is great for any day of the week. Crispy and flavorful on the outside, moist and juicy on the inside...and a real kid-pleaser. Why not add some red potatoes in the same dish alongside the chicken (poke holes in them or half if large) and bake for an easy side? Lovely served with a green salad for a complete meal with minimal effort. Recipe easily tripled for OAMC. Enjoy! From the book: Don't Panic: Dinner's in the Freezer

Another Once a month meal that's sure to please. My little girl likes these because they pick up easily in her hands! *I revised this recipe based on several folks pointing out that I had made a mistake on the amount of cream cheese. Thank you so much for the input!

MAKE-AHEAD MEXICAN CHICKEN (OAMC)



Make-Ahead Mexican Chicken (Oamc) image

This recipe is from a Pampered Chef party photocopy. I have always read and heard that it is not best practice to cook chicken in the juice that it marinates in, but I did for this recipe, and I'm still alive. It is not ABSOLUTELY necessary to freeze the chicken after combining all the ingredients in the bag - in fact, for my experience, I just took out frozen chicken breasts and defrosted the chicken in the sauce (in the fridge) and made it the very next night. The freezing part is just an option for busy people to have a convenient ready-made meal waiting in the freezer. I served this with cornbread and steamed veggies, but fiesta-style rice might be nice as well.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts (fresh or frozen)
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa (customize heat to your liking)
1 (2 ounce) can black olives, sliced and drained
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Write "Mexican Chicken - 400 degrees F for 45 min, then melt cheese on top" on the outside of a Ziploc bag.
  • Place the chicken in a freezer bag.
  • Add all of the ingredients to the freezer bag, except the cheese.
  • Coat the chicken well, squeeze all of the air out of the bag, and freeze.
  • When you are ready to make the chicken, defrost the chicken in the refrigerator for 24 hours (this also marinates the chicken in the salsa).
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (as you have written on your bag, so you wouldn't forget!).
  • Lightly spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Place the chicken in pan, and pour the sauce over the chicken.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
  • Sprinkle cheddar cheese on the top, and put back into the oven, until the cheese melts (the broiler would be a good alternative for this step too).
