Ingredients
- 4 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Directions
Step 1
Remove the broiler pan from your broiler and line it with foil. Preheat the broiler on the highest setting.
Step 2
Spread chicken breasts on the pan in a single layer. Leave space between each chicken breast.
Step 3
Broil until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear when sliced, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Step 4
Move chicken to a plate and cover with foil. Let rest for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Cut the chicken as desired. Divide into single servings and add to freezer bags. Spread bags in the freezer in a single layer. Cover with ice packs to speed up freezing.
Step 6
Remove ice packs when chicken is frozen and store in the freezer as desired.
Cook’s Note:
If you are starting this recipe with individually frozen raw chicken breasts, thaw them before broiling. To thaw quickly, fill a large pot with hot water and soak the frozen chicken for about 30 minutes.
