Candied Chicken

Recently I was sent a 30meals in one day kit. Which included the "dinner is ready" book By. Deanna Buxton, it has more than 150 Freezer-worthy dinner recipes.

This Candied Chicken recipe came from that book. It was AWESOME and We doubled the recipe and put one in the freezer after it cooled.

*and pull them apart like I had to... to get more sauce per bite

Remove from oven and serve.



Notes:
  • If sauce is too thin, boil just the sauce on the stove top for a few minutes until the sauce thickens to your liking **we did this yum!**

Freezer Meal Notes:
  • This recipe may Also be frozen prior to baking. Bake Chicken for 20 minutes and pour off liquid. Place chicken and Sauce in freezer bag. Label and Freeze.
  • To serve Frozen dish: Thaw. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 1 hour, basting every 15minutes.
