LPT: Buy your chicken in bulk, portion, prep, premarinade and then freeze.

We buy good quality chicken breast wholesale. We then portion into freezer bags with a variety of home made and bought marinades. Unless you're planning well ahead I find I rarely marinade meat / especially chicken long enough for the best results. The freezing then thawing really helps the flavour get into the meat.

I can go to my freezer in the morning and pull out from a selection of tikka, honey soy, lemon garlic and herb, middle eastern, peri-peri, BBQ, etc.

Not only is the flavour better but it makes choosing what to have for dinner somehow easier.
