Zesty Pineapple Chicken Freezer Recipe

2 lbs chicken breasts, with skin (about 4 breasts)
2 tbsp melted butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

Zesty Pineapple Glaze:
8 3/4 oz. can pineapple tidbits
1 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 c. lemon juice
2 tbsp. prepared mustard
1 tsp. soy sauce

Preheat oven to 375F. In a disposable 9" foil container (or baking dish that is
freezable) place chicken breasts with the skin side up. Brush each piece of
chicken with melted butter, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Bake
for 30 minutes. Just before chicken is finished baking, make glaze. Remove
chicken from oven and brush with flaze. Allow to cool completely then freeze.

On cooking day, remove dish from freezer to thaw. Once thawed, bake in preheated
375F for 50-60 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and glaze is dark
brown.
