Ritzy Chicken

This is another recipe shared with me by my niece.  We made a ton of these for her to put in the freezer before the birth of her first child...well, and then again for her third kiddo.  My boys enjoy these as well.


6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 c. Ritz crackers, crushed (about 45 crackers)
3/4 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 tsp. parsley
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
1 c. melted butter
1/3 c. apple juice

Mix crackers, cheese and seasonings together.  In a separate bowl, mix together butter and apple juice.  Dip chicken in butter mixture, then coat with cracker mixture.  If freezing, see directions below.  Otherwise, place in a greased baking dish.  Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.


Freezing directions:
Place in a disposable aluminum pan.  Cover with foil and freeze.


Large batch:
30 lbs. chicken breasts
5 boxes Ritz crackers
2 lbs. shredded mozzarella cheese
1 1/2 tsp. parsley
1/2 c. salt
1 1/4 tsp. pepper
1 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
about 5 c. butter
about 1 qt. plus 1 pint apple juice
