Can chicken be reheated more than once?

It's generally not recommended to reheat cooked chicken more than once. Here's why:

* Food safety: Each time you reheat chicken, the risk of bacterial growth increases. The longer chicken sits at room temperature, the more likely it is to harbor harmful bacteria.

* Quality: Reheating chicken multiple times can dry it out and make it less flavorful.

Instead of reheating chicken multiple times, consider:

* Using leftovers in other dishes: Chop up leftover chicken and use it in salads, soups, or sandwiches.

* Freezing leftovers: Freeze leftover chicken in airtight containers for up to 2-3 months. You can reheat it safely from frozen.

Remember: Always reheat chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it's safe to eat.
