This is a great time-saving tip to prepare chicken for meals.  If you try this, I promise you can cook your family a delicious meal quicker than going through a drive-thru, and your family will think you are amazing.  I have been doing this for years. When you have your chicken already cooked and shredded, and stored in the freezer, you can pull it out of the freezer and make a meal in about 15 minutes.  Think about all the meals you can make quickly. A chicken casserole, chicken tacos, chicken soup, and many other dishes can be made in about 20 minutes.  Also, this makes it so easy for your spouse or an older child to prepare supper.

Preparing freezer meal can take a whole entire day. I have found that this way works so much better for me.This is a way to get supper on the table quicker than going through a drive thru. I cook my chicken in the crockpot. Place it into my mixer to shred it in under 30 seconds, and freeze for later.

I will usually prepare about 8 chicken breasts at a time.  I place the chicken in a crockpot and let it cook 4 to 5 hours on low.  Do not overcook your chicken because you are going to reheat it or cook it again.

What if I told you that there are ways to precook, shred and freeze your chicken for cooking meals faster?

after it has cooked for hours, I will remove the chicken and place it in my mixer.  Your chicken can be hot or cold, it does not matter.  Use the paddle attachment.

I place the chopped chicken and the shredded chicken in freezer bags and place in my freezer.  Be sure to label your bags of shredded and chopped chicken so you will know the difference.

When I am ready to cook, I remove my chicken from the freezer and defrost in the microwave or run the bag under hot water.  Here is a quick idea, you can put the chicken in a pan with BBQ sauce and have BBQ chicken sandwiches in about 5 minutes.  Also, I defrost my chicken and heat a tortilla with chicken and cheese and have chicken quesadillas in 5 minutes. I like to put small amounts of chicken in bags and make myself a chicken salad for lunch.  I am telling you that this is a game-changer!  Preparing supper sometimes causes stress on the cook so anything to make mealtime less stressful is a win for me!

    Thanks for the great ideas….I have another one for you. Cook your spaghetti ahead of time, rinse the noodles in a colander and pack in ziplock bags. Freeze the bags flat on cookie sheet…for easy storage n the freezer. When you need noodles for a recipe all you have to do is put the frozen noodles in a colander and run warm water over them and they are the same texture as when you first boiled them.

    What a good idea! I usually split a large package of chicken breasts and then freeze, but this is so much easier!

    Why not to do this with other meat then freeze?

      Becky, I also do this with ground beef. I am posting it later this week. You can make meals like tacos in 5 minutes.

    I am a big fan of poaching my chicken. I hadn’t thought about doing it in the crockpot. This is a great idea. I love the idea of shredding it in the mixer, too! I am pinning this and want to thank you for stopping by and sharing at the Celebrate Your Story! link party!

    Great tip! I’m always looking for ways to spend less time in the kitchen. Plus living in AZ in the summer I need all the quick meal ideas. I don’t need extra heat in the kitchen.
