Cooked wings chicken how long at room temp?

It's not safe to leave cooked chicken wings at room temperature for an extended period. Bacteria can grow rapidly at room temperature, making the wings unsafe to eat.

Here's a general guideline:

* 2 hours maximum: Cooked chicken wings should be refrigerated within 2 hours of being cooked.

* 1 hour maximum in the "danger zone": If the temperature is above 90°F (32°C), the safe time is reduced to 1 hour.

To prevent foodborne illness:

* Refrigerate promptly: After cooking, cool the wings quickly by placing them in a shallow container in the refrigerator.

* Don't overcrowd: Avoid placing hot food directly on top of cold food in the refrigerator.

* Use a food thermometer: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken is at least 165°F (74°C) to kill harmful bacteria.

If you're unsure about the safety of your cooked chicken wings, it's always better to err on the side of caution and throw them away.
