How Do You Freeze And Thaw Chicken?
Buying boneless chicken breasts in bulk while on sale is a great way to save money. Boneless chicken breasts freeze very well so you can keep a stockpile of chicken in your freezer at all times. When you want to prepare a meal with chicken, you’ll just need to pull some out of the freezer and thaw it. Remove the chicken from its packaging. Cut away any fat that remains on the boneless chicken breasts. Cut the chicken into smaller pieces if desired. We cut some into bite sized pieces or strips for chicken tacos and stir fry. This way it is already cut when we want to cook, saving us a step at dinner time. Divide the chicken into meal sized portions. Freezing the chicken in smaller packages means you will only have to thaw the portion you need. The chicken will also thaw faster if it is in smaller packages. Use a food vacuum sealer to package the chicken. You can also place the chicken in freezer ziploc bags but vacuum sealing will make the chicken last longer and avoid freezer burn. Pla
