I love to make meals to prepare for the fall and winter, but crockpot meals are my favorite meals, easy cleanup, one pot wonders! Here are a few chicken recipes that you can make ahead and freeze for when you want them!





BBQ CHICKEN:
Place in the ziplock bag the following:

4-6 chicken breasts
1 (12oz) bottle of BBQ sauce
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp garlic powder

To cook:
Defrost chicken over night in fridge, in the morning cook on low for 4 hours




CHICKEN FAJITAS:
Place in the ziplock bag the following:

2 green peppers
1 onion
3 chicken breasts
1/2 cup of chicken broth
taco seasoning packet
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp of paprika
1 tsp salt

To cook:
Defrost chicken over night in fridge, in the morning cook on low for 5-6 hours. This is great shredded  over tortillas.



HAWAIIAN CHICKEN:
Place in the ziplock bag the following:

2-3 chicken breasts
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup vinegar
3 garlic cloves minced
2 tbs soy sauce
1/2 can of large pineapple chunks
1/2 cup of pineapple juice 

To cook:
Defrost chicken over night in fridge, in the morning cook on low for 6-7 hours. This is great shredded  over rice.


CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN:
Place in the ziplock bag the following:


3 chicken breasts
juice of 2 limes
1 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1 (16oz) bag of corn
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
1 tsp cumin
salt and pepper
To cook:
Defrost chicken over night in fridge, in the morning cook on low for 8 hours. This is great shredded  over rice or tortillas.


This is how I pack the bags, I double each recipe for two ziplock bags:





I then lay them flat, get all the air out and write on them so I know what is in it and how long it needs to cook. I then place them in freezer flat so it takes up little to no space!




 I hope you enjoy these yummy chicken meals!





It is as Simple As 1-2-3!
