Label four large freezer-safe bags: 'Maple Orange', 'Dijon Apple Cider', 'Brown Sugar Garlic', and 'Rosemary Garlic Butter'.
Divide the 6 lbs of chicken breasts evenly among the four bags (approximately 1.5 lbs each).
For the 'Maple Orange Chicken' bag, add 1 cup orange juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 tbsp minced garlic, salt, pepper, and the orange slices.
For the 'Dijon Apple Cider Chicken' bag, add 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, the apple slices, and 3 sprigs of fresh thyme.
For the 'Brown Sugar Garlic Chicken' bag, add 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 tbsp minced garlic, and 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary.
For the 'Rosemary Garlic Butter Chicken' bag, add 1/4 cup melted butter, 1 tbsp minced garlic, salt, pepper, and 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary.
Seal each bag, removing as much air as possible. Massage the bags to combine the ingredients and fully coat the chicken.
Lay the bags flat and freeze for up to 3 months. To cook, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then bake, grill, or pan-sear until cooked through.
