This looks delicious, printing it to try. Do you think it would freeze well? I was considering making in small batches for the 2 of us and freezing after step 4 in Pyrex dishes. Probably use about half a pound of chicken and 3 cup dish. Should the chicken pieces be laid down in a single layer? How big do you consider large pieces? We would normally do about an inch. Think the almonds would get too smushy?
