How long after cooking chicken can you store in the fridge?

You can safely store cooked chicken in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.

Here are some important things to remember:

* Cool it quickly: After cooking, let the chicken cool to room temperature (within two hours) before refrigerating.

* Store it properly: Store the chicken in an airtight container or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

* Use a food thermometer: Make sure the internal temperature of the chicken is 40°F (4°C) or below.

Remember: If you're unsure about the safety of cooked chicken, it's best to err on the side of caution and throw it away.
