How long should you keep seasoned uncooked chicken in the refrigerator?

You should not keep seasoned uncooked chicken in the refrigerator for an extended period.

Here's why:

* Bacteria growth: Even though seasoning might make the chicken taste better, it doesn't prevent bacteria growth. Bacteria can multiply quickly at room temperature and in the refrigerator.

* Food safety: Eating undercooked or spoiled chicken can lead to food poisoning, which can cause severe illness.

Here's what you should do instead:

* Cook the chicken as soon as possible: Once seasoned, cook the chicken immediately.

* Refrigerate for a maximum of 2 days: If you must store the chicken, keep it in the refrigerator for no more than 2 days.

* Proper storage: Store the chicken in a sealed container or wrap tightly in plastic wrap to prevent cross-contamination.

Always remember:

* Never leave chicken out at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

* Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it's safe to eat.

If you have any doubts about the safety of your chicken, it's always best to err on the side of caution and discard it.
