Ingredients
- Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (how ever many you want to freeze, we do one per person)
- 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Melted butter or beaten egg (for dipping)
- Saran Wrap
Directions
-
In a bowl, combine bread crumbs and cheddar cheese.
-
Take a raw breast, dip in the butter or egg mixture, then into the bread crumb/cheese mixture. Make sure the whole breast is coated with crumbs.
-
Lay the coated chicken breast on a piece of saran wrap and wrap it up tight. Place breaded, wrapped, chicken breast in a labeled Ziploc bag. Continue until all the breasts are done. (You may need to add more bread crumbs and cheese to the bowl if you have several breast to do.
-
To reheat:
-
Unwrap desired number of bread chicken breasts and place on a baking sheet. Put baking sheet in the fridge and allow the breasts to thaw.
-
When completely thawed, bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes until brown (internal temp should read 170 degrees).
-
(If you plan on baking them straight from the freezer (not thawed), up the baking time to 35-40 minutes).
