How long can you leave chicken at room temperature before it goes bad?!


Question:

How long can you leave chicken at room temperature before it goes bad?

My sister left frozen chicken on the counter and its been there for 24 hours now. Is it still safe to cook?


Answers:

NO....throw it out.....the temperature danger zone is 41 - 140 degrees....anything in that temperature range for over 4 hours can allow bacteria to grow.....do not cook that chicken
