One of the most annoying and frustrating problems as a home cook, is looking into the fridge on a weeknight and realizing either, the protein you got earlier this week is past the freeze-by date, you have no protein in the first place, or the pack of chicken you threw into the freezer is hours away from being thawed

So in today’s video, I’m going to show you 3 different methods & subsequent recipes for freezing proteins that can be taken straight from your freezer and onto the stove to create meals in 15 minutes or less.
