How to Freeze Make Ahead “Anything Chicken”

I love to Freeze Make Ahead “Anything Chicken”, It’s so versatile and can save you some time when you come home from work and or you’ve been out of town. This recipe is using an Instant Pot but cook the chicken however you like.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 8 Chicken Breasts

Ingredients
  

  • 8 Chicken Breasts or Thighs
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Method
 

  1. Prepare your raw chicken, with breasts or thighs. Trim off anything that you wish.
  2. I like using my Instant Pot but you can use a grill, oven or stove top.
  3. Place olive oil in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add the chicken and the water.
  4. Cook your chicken according to the directions in your manual. If vou like a particular seasoning and want to make the same type of meal often, then use that.
  5. At this point, you can either leave the chicken as a breast or thigh. You can also shred/pull the chicken, depending on how you plan to use it.
  6. Allow the chicken to cool completely.
  7. Place in either a ziploc bag or a container with a lid.
  8. Store in freezer for 3 months.
