What do you do when Whole Foods has a sale on whole chickens? Buy four of them, cut them into eight pieces each, and vacuum seal them for freezer storage, of course. Chicken with lemon and olive, chicken curry, roasted chicken, hainanese chicken, chicken, chicken, chicken. And the rest for stock.

Ziploc vacuum seal bags are effective, affordable, and take up less space than those clunky vacuum sealers.
This much chicken calls for a dinner party. Getting the living room into guest-ready shape is the next project.
