How long will cooked chicken stay good for?

in a tightly closed package in coldest part of refrigerator?


Answers:

Although the stndard answer here is correct (4-5 days) it will also depend upon if this is just plain cooked chicken, or chicken dish, or even fried or bbw chicken. If there is any sugar, flour, or high carbohydrate ingredient with this chicken, I wouldn't let it go more than three days, as these ingredients (sugar, starch,ect.) can produce bacteria faster, provides a more invitable breeding area. On these typoes though, smell will usually tell. When it doubt, throw it out...
