Batch cooking chicken recipes

4 replies

I tend to do batch cooking to cut down on food wastage and time but I'm finding we are eating far too many mince based meals.

Does anyone have any good chicken based recipes for batch cooking please?

I don't batch cook chicken as such.

But I get a couple of huge trays of breasts.
And put about 3 in a freezer bag.
Then marinate them. A few I do.

Chipotle paste: easily turned into tacos, fajitas etc.
Tikka paste: Sometimes makes my own sometimes use the sainsburys one. Either have this as a start to a curry, as salad, with rice, naan pizza etc.
Harissa paste: wraps, with cous cous or as salad.
Greek style so I put in olive oil, cinnamon, oregano, garlic. Then use it as a salad or in a pitta.

There are others but my mind as gone blank.
That way I can just take a bag out in the morning and cook whatever carbs we are having with it.
Pop the breasts in the oven or on the grill and sorted.
