Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken
    The honey mustard sauce in this recipe tastes delicious on hamburgers, and you can use it with pork chops or sliced ham.
    INGREDIENTS | SERVES 6
    6 boneless, skinless split chicken breasts
    1 cup honey
    ½ cup Dijon mustard
    2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    Freezing Day
    Place the chicken breast in a freezer bag. In food processor, mix honey, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth consistency is reached. Put 1/3 of honey mustard sauce in small freezer bag or plastic container. Pour remaining 2/3 of sauce over chicken and seal the bag. With your hands on the outside of the bag, move chicken around so it is coated with sauce. Freeze.
    Reheating Instructions
    Defrost chicken and separate container of sauce in refrigerator overnight. Over high heat, grill chicken 2 minutes per side. Decrease grill temperature to medium-low and cook an additional 5–10 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Use separate container of sauce to baste chicken during last few minutes of cooking.

    Use Tongs When Grilling
    When you are grilling chicken or steak and it is time to turn the meat, use a pair of tongs instead of a fork that will pierce the meat. The delicious juices inside the meat can escape through the fork puncture and cause the meat to be dry and chewy.
Curried Chicken
    Made from the meat of the coconut, coconut milk is created through a multistep process of steeping grated coconut in hot water, straining out the pulp, and repeating this process up to three times. Thankfully, canned coconut milk is readily available in grocery stores.
    INGREDIENTS | SERVES 4–6
    1 whole chicken, cooked
    1 onion, chopped
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons flour
    1 teaspoon curry powder (or to taste)
    1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
    4 drops hot sauce (or to taste)
    Freezing Day
    Remove cooked chicken from bone and set aside. Over medium-high heat, sauté onions in butter 5–10 minutes until onions are soft and translucent. Stir in flour and curry powder. Slowly pour in coconut milk, stirring until mixture thickens. Add hot sauce and mix well. Simmer for 10 minutes. Add chicken to the sauce, mix, and immediately remove from heat to cool. Freeze in a freezer bag.
    Reheating Instructions
    Defrost chicken mixture in the refrigerator overnight, in the microwave, or in cold water. Heat in a saucepan over medium heat for 15–20 minutes or until desired temperature is reached. Serve over rice.
