How many times can you reheat chicken?

Best Answers

Most people reheat their food to "warm" or even "hot" but not cooking temperature. Unless you reheat to an internal temperature of 74° C / 165° F, then all that time in the danger zone after cooking is cumulative. read more

It should be OK, usually. You can reheat chicken twice, it's really about how the chicken's been cooled/stored between times that's the essential factor. That's why the advice usually goes out to "only reheat chicken once" as you're then in the realms of relying on people's ability to continue to cool/store the chicken correctly. read more

Remember, you can always reheat more if you're still hungry! Also remember that leftovers should be eaten with four days, so if you don't think you'll finish them within that time period, consider freezing the leftovers instead. read more
