Notes
Meal Prep and Storage
- To Prep-Ahead: This dish is SO easy to prep ahead. You can chop the veggies the day before, but be sure to toss the potatoes with oil or they will brown. You can make the sauce the day before, just give it a good whisk before using it.
- To Store: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 to 5 days.
- To Freeze: Tightly wrap the veggies separate from the chicken and keep them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 4 months. Some vegetables will be mushy when they thaw, however.
- To Reheat: Warm chicken and veggies up on a pan in a 350℉ oven for 10 minutes. You can use the microwave, but the veggies will get soggy.
