i frequently make recipes that yield more than one or two servings and end up leaving the extra portions in the re-
frigerator a few days. Then I reheat the leftovers but sometimes they don't turn out so well. Case in point: I frequently make sun-dried tomato crusted chicken (April 04), and stuffed chicken breasts (Dec 04,Jan 05) - or I may combine bits of each recipe. What would happen if I froze the portion that I would not be eating that day before cooking it, and then, say, a month later, cooked it? If this is an acceptable method, and should I thaw it first, and then cook it as usual?
Any advise would be appreciated.
