Chicken depending on its status can keep in the refrigerator for the following days:
1. Cooked chicken – usually 4 days but depending on the ingredients used it can vary. Chicken cooked in tomatoes can only last for 1-2 days. On the other hand, chicken cooked with lots of salt and vinegar can keep in the refrigerator for as long as 4-6 days.
2. Uncooked chicken – when sealed in a package on 40°F, 2-4 days
3. Thawed chicken – when sealed in a package on 40°F, 1 day
The status of the chicken depends on how long you can keep it in the refrigerator. When going on trips or long drives, chicken cooked on vinegar would assure you the longest lifespan.
