Question I boiled chicken breast and turned it off at 8 pm. I went next door. I forgot to put it in the refrigerator until the next morning. Is it bad? It smells okay. Can I reboil it or anything to make sure it is good?
Answer Carolann,
How are you doing? Reboiling the chicken is not a solution to food that is left out. If the chicken was raw I would tell you to definitely throw it away. However, it was cooked and although it does not fall within the normal guidelines for refrigerating your food after cooking it(within 2 hours), I would not consider it spoiled but this is a decision you will have to make.
