Ziploc Chicken
"After coming home from the store with 11 pounds of boneless chicken breasts, I decided to try freezing some in marinade. this is an adaption of a recipe a friend gave me years ago. The marinade can be used with other pieces of chicken. Chicken can also be cut into smaller pieces and bbq'd on skewers that have been soaked in water. For a nice appetizer."

I marinated this for about 6 hours. IMO, it needs more "ummpphh." I used Sweet Bay Ray's BBQ sauce and a bottle of Corona. -
my family loved this chicken! It was such a good easy marinade, I left it to marinade in the fridge overnight and it turned out great bbq'd! We even used the leftover chicken breasts to make chicken burgers with it the next day! -
This was a very good marinade. I did not use the freeze method but cooked them from fresh. I marinated them about 36 hours using 2 lbs. of chicken. I cooked the pieces in a skillet on the stove top but I think they would have been even better grilled. I'm thinking of dicing up the left overs for a home made bbq pizza. Thanks for sharing!
