How long will Hawaiian Pizza Chicken last?
This Hawaiian Pizza Chicken meal will last 3 to 4 days in the fridge when properly stored. We recommend you use these glass meal prep containers. They are microwavable, as well as fridge and freezer safe, so reheating your Hawaiian Pizza Chicken in these awesome meal prep containers is an island breeze. Not to mention the airtight, leakproof lids will keep your prepped meals fresh for longer.
If you want to make sure your meal reheats evenly, it is a good idea to slice up the chicken before storing it. Also, if you put a little bit of extra pizza sauce on the bottom of the container before adding the chicken to the meal prep container, you will be sure to have delicious, moist chicken for all 4 meals.
Can Hawaiian Pizza Meal Prep Recipe be frozen?
This Pizza Chicken meal prep recipe can be frozen for up to 3 months. Once the meal is completely cooled, slice the chicken and put a little pizza sauce in the bottom of the glass meal prep containers and place the chicken and broccoli in the meal-prep containers, top with plastic wrap, and seal the lids and pop them in the freezer.
To reheat, remove the lid, keep the plastic wrap on, and warm in the microwave until it’s heated throughout. You can also add a bit of extra sauce and cheese before reheating to ensure that it stays moist and cheesy.
How do you make Hawaiian Pizza Chicken?
You know we love to share simple, yet satisfying meals with you here at Meal Prep on Fleek. This recipe is no exception. Start by preheating the oven. Take 4 thawed Chicken breasts and season both sides with sea salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. To make the meat more tender, place it in wax paper and lightly pound with a marinating prep tool (aka meat mallet) about 10 times per breast.
Place the seasoned, tenderized meat in a glass baking dish and cover with foil. Bake chicken as directed and then remove the foil and top with pizza sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, and ham and pineapple. Return to the oven and bake until bubbly and starting to brown. Remove from the oven and let cool. Add parmesan and red chili flakes. Serve with steamed broccoli or any other favorite vegetable.
