Can I freeze Make-Ahead Greek Chicken?

While you are able to freeze any leftovers, we do not typically recommend this. When food is frozen after it has been cooked and then thawed again, the texture and flavors are depleted compared to when it was first cooked. If at all possible, we encourage you to eat any leftovers within the recommended three to five day time frame.

This recipe can be made into a raw freezer meal, which is what we recommend, just add all ingredients, except feta cheese, into a gallon freezer bag. Then, seal and shake to fully coat ingredients. Freeze for up to three months.
