    Default Can I eat my chicken?

    Ok so Friday I defrosted some chicken and then marinated it in teriyaki sauce. Well since we didnt have hot water on Friday night and none for most of Saturday and Im finally home tonight Im wondering if I can cook and eat my chicken? Is it gross now and inedible? Safe or no safe to eat?

    Sniff it. If it's been in refrigerated the whole time and it doesn't stink, it's probably fine. Spoilage is usually pretty obvious with chicken; when it's unsafe to eat, it really stinks!

    Then again, there is the old saying, "When it doubt, throw it out..."

    Where was it stored? Was it covered? If it was covered and was in the fridge, its probably fine so long as you cook it thoroughly... If it was on the counter while defrosting, or any of that, I wouldn't risk it...

    (yay for too much money spent at culinary school)

    I know I hate wasting food. Maybe thats why I accidentally get food poising alot from my own food? Im not kidding. Or food that I got from somewhere and still thought it was good the 5th day.

    edit: saw 2nd post.
    Yea it was covered and stored in a bowl with saran wrap. Im a bad cook at knowing how long something is good for. My thing is as long as is living on it then its good to eat. Sometimes doesnt work so well.

    It all depends on how fresh it was when it was frozen to begin with.

    I'm with Yek, sniff it! Bad chicken lets you know. And then you won't even feel like eating dinner if it is bad.

    That's funny. I had the same issue last week.
    I had the chicken frozen for about one month. Defrosted it last mon and put it in a marinade. By din time thurs, it was so bad I only had hint of lime tostitos for din that night.

    Thank god I went food shopping on fri!

    I'm pretty sure it's bad, but do like everyone else says and sniff.

    Was there raw garlic in the marinade? That can slow down the growth of microorganisms.

    Yeah I've let chicken relax in the fridge longer than that before cooking.

    Just hope you cooked it thoroughly!
