1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

In a large bowl or Ziploc bag combine the rest of the ingredients except the cheese. Pour the mixture over the chicken. Sprinkle with cheese and cover with foil.
For dinner tonight: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake for 45 minutes, uncover and bake an additional 5-6 minutes, until the internal temperature of the chicken breasts reaches 165 degrees F.
Or, to freeze, cover the dish with foil. Label, date, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before cooking as directed above.
