Chicken Parmesan Freeze Dried Ep203b

[@historyteacher4402]

You are a genius!!! This looks amazing!

[@EarthlyVibes]

🇨🇦🇺🇸 great video, dont be disappointed. You could spritz the cheese with a spray bottle and the steam would soften it up nicely. Great looking dinner

[@carolclarkson4859]

Really impressive results on that thick chicken.

[@JohnInBibs]

Thank you

[@ladyprepared]

That looks amazing!! We will definitely be adding this list to make!

[@marktwenhafel9378]

Not only did I learn something for the freeze dryer I learn something for my air fryer double win thank you sir

[@JohnInBibs]

Thank you for watching!

[@mycreativeescape]

That looks faaaabulouso! I can't wait to try this!

[@sarahspencer3737]

This looks Amazing Thanks for all the work you do and the wonderful ideas you give us

[@JohnInBibs]

Thank you for watching 👀

[@BrendaHoward411]

Another excellent idea!!

[@dartagnantaft5918]

I can't wait till I get a freeze dryer, I'll be trying this.

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks, it was good!

[@Scorpio_Rose1980]

For my air fryer chicken parmesan, I slice horizontal (fillet) my chicken breast. Keeps them all about the same thickness. 😊

[@honeycovecreations5013]

Fantastic video! Once my FD finally gets here I think I will try boiling my pasta in chicken broth for extra flavor 😁😍 I'm loving your videos!!!

[@Editbyhelen]

Thank you for fulfilling my request! I'm going to do this for my next batch! Where can I send you some goodies John? Need address

[@KLU421]

Looks fantastic! Wish we had smell-o-vision! Your Hot chocolate recipe just went it the FD. Going to try this, this week!

[@TanteEmmasKitchen]

Thanks for this amazing tutorial. I think a spray bottle with water to mist the cheese should be enough to reconstitute it. What is your thought on this?

[@47retta]

John , you need one of these. Original Jokari Adjustable Baggy Rack Stand 1 Pack. Prop Plastic Ziploc Freezer Storage Bags Open Hands-Free To Pour Leftovers, Snacks and Meal Prep Ingredients With No Food S

[@shirleydodd1953]

This is one of our families favorite meals. Thanks for helping learn how to put it in our storage and for your willingness to share your experiences and knowledge. Keep up the great job! BTW, where did you get the Vac Master Pro you use?

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks I got it from Amazon

[@misterp158]

good stuff

[@rabeccalassek9511]

Looks so delicious! Love your tip about freezing the noodles in the pan for the perfect fit! You have 2 size pans in your store. Was that the 9x7 pans you used? Thank you again for a wonderful video! :-)

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks. These pans are the deeper of the two. Sorry I'm at work so can't check right now

[@rabeccalassek9511]

@@JohnInBibs No problem. I figured they might be the bigger ones, but wanted to check. Thanks for all your work. :-) Have a good day.

[@mantzbrinkman4780]

Thanks!

[@JohnInBibs]

Thank you so much for your very kind support!

[@marthaadams8326]

As soon as my freeze dryer gets a few replacement parts put in tomorrow and the pump is reading the pressure right, I hope to get back to doing more things that are waiting for the F.D. Good hint with the fork holes in the chicken breasts to make more air move through.

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks, and the holes also allow the breast to absorb moisture better when reconstituting.

[@debbiesessin4360]

I will definitely be trying this recipe! Where did you get the smaller pans and liners? That would come in handy. Thanks for all your tips and recipes, keeps me motivated!

[@JohnInBibs]

I picked them up on amazon. the liners I cut from a larger sheet of silicon

[@bonniemitchell6048]

If you do package it this way, then you can use the top of the container you threw away to bake the chicken and noodles instead of using foil.

[@amandaytx]

Thank you, looks good and sharing.

[@JohnInBibs]

Thank you too

[@markmellinger1887]

I have a quick question for you. I dried two trays of store-bought pasta sauce. It went on an automatic run. When I pulled it out it seemed like there was a very thin film of stickiness on the top of the pasta layer. Basically no thicker than a couple of hairs. Have you ever had this happen and is that just a sugar from the sauce at the top of the layer of freeze dried pasta sauce?

[@JohnInBibs]

I don't know, if it was still sticky I would have added a few hours and checked it again. I could be the sugar content that separated but it has never happened to me with my Prego lol

[@photofreak21]

How many hours did it take to freeze dry the batch?

[@AndreaS-oq7sw]

Also, is your packaging good for long term storage?

[@JohnInBibs]

Time will tell

[@lindastephen-seaver6345]

Hi John, I am curious as to why you don't use any seasoning in your meals like salt and pepper on your chicken? Would using it affect the final flavor?

[@JohnInBibs]

Not really. If from scratch I use seasoning but jarred sauces I think it has enough for me

[@heart-centeredhealthcoachi3615]

What vacuum sealer do you use for the foil bags. It says no FoodSaver sealers.

[@JohnInBibs]

Vacmaster Pro, this is the one I have but it is no longer available, I think they have a smaller version: amzn.to/3t5fPu3

[@Barosunflower]

I wonder why you didn’t rehydrate the cheese

[@AndreaS-oq7sw]

I've never used an air fryer before. I understand you have to use a small amount of oil in it. Is this an issue with foids that are then freeze dried for long term storage?

[@JohnInBibs]

In this video I cooked them just as shown. No oil. Ideally you could spritz them with oil but I didn't and they came out nice

[@cliffmolz8719]

John, everything you made looked really good. However, you lost me when you placed the chicken, noodles and Parmesan cheese in a tin container with an O2 packet and then sealed it in a plastic bag like a Sealameal? I too use these bags, but for freezing foods that are to last approximately two years. I'm not sure that they are as good as mylar bags. Why would you not just use a bigger mylar bag, place your chicken in the first third and seal, place your noodles in the second section, seal and then your cheese in the third and seal? Have your other items such as sauce in a second smaller bag? I know, there's always a better mouse trap, but again, I do no think the plastic seal bags are made to last as long as mylar i.e. 25 years. The square tins also seem to be somewhat big and bulky. Thumbs up on the video. Cheers

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks for your input. I would agree that the plastic bag on its own would not be a good idea. However I enclose that bag in an overall outer mylar bag. For me a family of one this is a great way to have a meal that I open add water to the container it comes in and cook. No dishes to wash after LOL

[@CynthiaBrown-tl6tf]

How about doing a KFC bowl mashed gravy corn and breaded chicken nuggets on top ( how would you rehydrate those chicken nuggets ? Thanks

[@lindalevrio3319]

What kind of vacuum sealer are you using? And are those 7mm mylar bags?

[@JohnInBibs]

Vacmaster Pro 380 as stated in the video. The sauce pouch I used was 7 mil. The foil is not I explain about it in the video

[@lindalevrio3319]

@@JohnInBibs thank you..I posted the question before you mentioned it..where do you get the foil? And do you trust it for long term storage..

[@JohnInBibs]

I should have mentioned in the video but if I didn't I have it listed in my Amazon store. On its own I wouldn't trust it for long term because it is thin, that is why I first vacuum pack with the clear foodsaver type material then the foil, two layers makes be feel safer

[@historyteacher4402]

Could you do some wizardry and figure out Chicken Fried Steak with gravy? 😋

[@JohnInBibs]

Ohhh that sounds good!

[@marthaadams8326]

where did you get those great half trays please?

[@JohnInBibs]

Amazon, I have a link to my Amazon store in the description box

[@TheRINOShow]

Great instructional video. Thanks. Only if you could reduce the bag crinkling noise. It annoying, like someone chompling on feed in your ear.

[@pawsomelabrastead9244]

Neat, but why not just put the sauce in ziplock bag too and into the foil tray too{save some mylar}, since sealing everything inside larger mylar?

[@JohnInBibs]

It won't fit

[@thatandthese]

I see you have mylar bags for a vac sealer? Can you show/tell what bags you're using for mylar and the vac sealer please. Thanks!

[@JohnInBibs]

I am pretty sure I mention that in the video. If not, check out my lasagna video I go into detail in that one

[@debik6118]

When you pulled that fork full of tender, steamy chicken out at the end, I said out loud "Good job John!“ I'm sorry about the cheese, but the rest looks amazing!

[@JohnInBibs]

Thanks. I hope you didn't startle anyone. 😉

[@Red-dq4go]

Hi, did you use 3 cups cold water?

[@JohnInBibs]

yes, but really it was enough to cover the noodles and not the chicken, didn't want the breaded chicken covered in water

[@Tjensen999]

I had to replace my relay board after only 1 year of having the machine.

[@christhew8553]

I think I'll try this, but I'll pound the breast down thinner and cut them or just slice them.

[@roninbudo]

COULD YOU JUST PUT IN EACH FOOD ITEM IN SEPARATE MYLAR BAGS THEN PUT THEM IN ONE MYLAR BIG BAG INSTEAD OF USING THE TRAYS ?????

[@karianngardenguru]

Congratulations. $4K Chicken parm. This idea is not viable for long term.

[@debbievargas2920]

Hi 👋 why do you say that? I’m new to freeze drying, just curious so I don’t make unintentional mistakes…
