Storage & Make-Ahead Instructions:

You can store this Baked Herb Chicken in the refrigerator for 2 days. However, it is best consumed on the same day because milk and cream cheese do not store well in the sauce.

You can marinate the Chicken Breast and keep it in a ziplock bag in the freezer. Bake it before serving.
