I just put it right in a plastic container because I usually defrost the whole thing at once anyway.

I refrigerate it overnight first to skim the fat, then I freeze in containers, not filled to the very top because it will expand a bit.

I also freeze in (perm marker marked) freezer bags inserted in containers. When it's frozen I take the container and put it away.

Btw I used to get confused with which containers were milk and which were meat. Now I buy square/rect shaped for meat and round for dairy. I freeze more meat dishes and the square/rect ones are more space efficient. Off the topic, I know. Just sharing a helpful tip.

I would take out the veg first - after freezing in chicken soup, they usually get a rubbery texture when reheating.
