Apple Maple Chicken Dump Recipe
Dump Recipes are the fastest way to make freezer meals. It’s so easy to make many at one time. This apple maple chicken dump recipe is delicious and can be cooked in the oven or the crock-pot®. It has an interesting blend of flavors that go so well together.
This recipe calls for a fair bit of garlic. We are big fans of garlic as you may notice from the fact that most of our recipes call for garlic and that a lot of them even have the word “garlic” in the title! If you aren’t a fan, just reduce the amount the recipe calls for or eliminate it altogether. Personally, I think it tastes best with this amount, but you be the judge!

If you’re new to making dump recipes, this video takes you through the process step-by-step:
To put together this freezer meal, place chicken pieces in a large resealable bag. Dump all the rest of the ingredients in the bag. Squish it to mix everything together. Remove the excess air, seal, and freeze. 
On the day of cooking, take the bag out of the freezer to thaw. You can cook it in the oven or in the slow cooker.
Oven instructions: After thawing, place the chicken and sauce in a covered casserole dish. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for one hour, uncover during the last 10 minutes.
Crock-pot instructions: Place thawed chicken and sauce into the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-5 hours.
Serve the chicken with side dishes such as rice, potatoes, vegetables, or a salad. We ate ours with roasted root vegetables (yum!) and cabbage.
