This dish can be prepared up to putting the sauce on and frozen or refrigerated (sauce separately) for later use. Just be sure to thaw chicken well before baking. It also can be easily a low-fat / diabetic friendly dish by using low-fat cheeses and 1/2 oil and butter . Its very easy yet presents beautifully. Accompanied by a salad and garlic bread. Easy enough for family dining, special enough for company !
