Just the evening before the marinade stir, fill with the poultry in the freezer bag, airtight seal - and off in the fridge with it. When you come home exhausted the next day, put the contents of the bag in a saucepan, let it simmer for 20 minutes and look forward to a tender, highly aromatic chicken fillet. Because by the long pulling in the marinade the spices can penetrate the meat wonderfully. At the same time, this prevents the chicken from drying out during preparation.
