Goddess, I haven't had any leftovers to freeze, but I believe you can. I would suggest making sure it is completely cool before wrapping it, or to freeze it in plasticware so you don't lose the coating. :)

Something I will consider making. I like them both together. Chicken dishes taste so good with lemon accent. This one is new to me. I think I will enjoy.........Debe

I would love to try this. Can you freeze the remaining part of it?
