Honey Sesame Chicken

I've begun experimenting with"freezer meals."  You know the ones... you dump all the ingredients into a gallon freezer bag and stick it all in the freezer until you're ready to make it, then you pull it out and dump it in the crock pot the day you want it. Voilà - meal done! I've been buying and prepping one of these weekly, building up a stash in our chest freezer for when life gets crazy hectic with two sports at once this spring. BUT - I couldn't wait to try this one, it smelled so good going into the bag.

Coach's Post Game Conference
As you can see above, we didn't shred it. I didn't think it needed it. We served atop a combination of Pad Thai rice noodles and ramen noodles (mainly because I didn't realize we didn't have rice until it was time to MAKE the rice and I wasn't leaving the house - yup... LAZY)
The flavor was DELICIOUS - we will definitely be making this again - SEVERAL times through the spring!
