Here are 9 easy chicken dinners, many of which can be made ahead of time and frozen for those busy days.
Nothing makes me feel more like Martha than being able to pull a prepared meal from the freezer on nights when there is no time to cook. Yesterday, we returned from a hike to the river late in the afternoon, hangry. My mood changed when I remembered that I had this Easy Thai Baked Chicken all ready to cook, just waiting for me in the freezer. We lit the grill and relaxed on the deck while the chicken cooked and the veggies roasted in foil. It's back-to-school time soon. Many of these chicken dishes can be prepped and frozen ahead of time, ready to help you fend off weeknight craziness. Be like Martha. Here's a recipe round-up of 9 easy chicken dinners from Flavour and Savour. Enjoy!
