    There are no germs in a properly cooked chicken so they can be reheated with no problem.
    If you yourself introduce germs into a cooked chicken while cooling it down or unhygenic handling then these can be destroyed by reheating the chicken to cooking temperature for 5 minutes.
    For example...you buy a cooken chicken from tesco's in a sealed bag (this chicken has no germs in it)..if you think it might have,then dont even eat it hot from the bag!......if you need to eat it later then leave in bag sealed from any risk,germs cannot enter the sealed bag so it must be ok to reheat within a couple of hours to cooking temp for 5 minutes.......simples

    Wrong.. You can still get food poisoning from cooked chicken as it might looked cooked on the outside... but what about the inner?.

    Sorry I had to put this post up - how do you know that the bag is sterile? Now, how do you know how the chicken was placed in the bag - may have being the tongs to put the chicken in there (did those tongs touch raw meat?) or the use of gloves and fingers or the odd hair might get in.

    As part of my Food Safe and Hazard Risk Assessments in past life I can honestly say... I would honestly would wash and recook to full temp, so the chicken meat has a internal temp of above 65c as you would in a oven
    It's hard to find the balance when you are love.
    You're lost in the middle cause you have to decide between mind & heart.

    I wouldn't reheat a cooked chicken in the oven, but thoroughly reheating it in the microwave is safe

    Just reheat what you actually need. Use the leftovers tomorrow so you arent re heating twice .
    Or freeze
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
