Passing along some Chicken Storage Safety Tips...
* Refrigerate raw chicken promptly. Never leave it on countertop at room temperature.
* Packaged fresh chicken may be refrigerated in original wrappings in the coldest part of the refrigerator.
* Freeze uncooked chicken if it is not to be used within 2 days.
* If properly packaged, frozen chicken will maintain top quality in a home freezer for up to 1 year.
* Thaw chicken in the refrigerator — not on the countertop — or in cold water. It takes about 24 hours to thaw a 4-pound chicken in the refrigerator. Cut-up parts, 3 to 9 hours.
