Source: 30 Day Gourmet
| 1/2 c. | Italian salad dressing |
| 5-6 lbs. | chicken parts |
| 1 c. | grated parmesan cheese |
| 2/3 c. | dry bread crumbs |
| 1/4 c. | parsley flakes |
| 1 tsp. | paprika |
| 1 tsp. | salt |
| 1/2 tsp. | pepper |
Containers:
1-gallon freezer bags for chicken, quart freezer bags for crumbs.
Assembly Directions:
To Pre-Bake on Cooking Day: Pour salad dressing in a large bowl. Add the chicken parts to the dressing, coating well. Cover and chill about 4 hours, or overnight. Turn chicken in the dressing occasionally. Combine parmesan cheese, dry bread crumbs, parsley flakes, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. Roll chicken one piece at a time in the crumbs, then place chicken in a greased 9x 13 baking pan or on a cookie sheet. Spoon excess dressing over the chicken. Bake at 350º for 1 hour, or until thickest piece is done.
To Bake on Serving Day: Pour chicken parts and salad dressing into a freezer bag. Combine the parmesan cheese, dry bread crumbs, parsley flakes, paprika, salt and pepper and pour into a quart-sized freezer bag. Attach to the bag of chicken or put both bags into a larger freezer bag.
Freezing and Cooking Directions:
Pre-Baked Chicken:
Remove from oven and cool. Put baked chicken pieces into a freezer bag or rigid freezer container. Label and freeze. To serve, place chicken in a 9x13 baking dish or pan. Warm in 400º oven for 10 minutes or until warmed through.
Non-Baked Chicken:
Seal, label, and freeze. To serve, thaw marinated chicken and crumb mixture. Roll chicken one piece at a time in the crumbs, or shake in a bag, then place chicken in a greased 9x13 pan or on a cookie sheet. Spoon excess dressing over the chicken. Bake at 350º for 1 hour or until thickest piece is done.
Comments:
Having the chicken already baked can really come in handy if you don’t have an hour before dinnertime. We especially recommend pre-baking dark meat poultry because it stays moist during re-heating. Diet dressing works fine. Foil-lined cookie sheets help speed the clean up if you bake lots of chicken on Assembly Day.
