Hey all -- the following recipe is my version of a frozen dinner,
but I'm not satisfied with how it reheats, so I'm looking for
some suggestions:

Chicken & Zucchini w/Bearnaise Sauce

26 oz. chicken breast, skinless & boneless
10 oz. zucchini, skin on, sliced
8 oz. (12 med) white mushrooms, sliced
1 prepared package McCormick Bearnaise Sauce
(McCormick Bearnaise Sauce Blend w/4 T. butter
and 8 oz. 1% milk)

Steam chicken and cut into 1" cubes. Arrange with raw zucchini and
mushrooms in 4 meal trays, cover each with ¼ of Bearnaise sauce.
Heat at 350º F for ½ hour (1 hour if frozen).

(Please, no fussing about my using packaged Bearnaise sauce, because
I happen to really like it.)

Okay, the problem is that when reheated, the veggies add a lot of
water which dilutes the sauce (the sauce also breaks, but that's
probably unavoidable). Would it help to steam the veggies with the
chicken before freezing? Any other helpful suggestions? Many thanks
in advance... :-)
