My turn for Chicken Thighs
I know how to cook them. But stupidly, I bought a family pack (24 thighs)
and didn't separate them before I stuck the package in the freezer last
month. If I plan to grill chicken thighs for Labor Day (not yet determined
by law), I'll have to thaw 24 of these suckers, or at least partially thaw
them so I can separate out about 12 of them. My grill is a regular Webber
kettle and wouldn't hold more than 12 thighs. As it is, I'll have to
re-freeze some of the *cooked* thighs which is fine because I'll have good
leftovers.
Anyway, can I safely half-defrost and then shove the rest in freezer bags
and put them back in the freezer? Or should I plan to grill half and make
chicken stew or cacciatore or whatever within the next day or so with the
remaining 12 thighs?
Jill <--kicking herself for not separating the package before freezing it.
