    I would only reheat chicken once, but I don't know if that's because I read it somewhere or if it's just my own superstition.
    I like cooking with wine......sometimes I even put it in the food!

    You can use it for sandwiches or salad, but i wouldn't heat it up more than once.

    You can buy cooked chicken and heat it, so I can't see why it would be a problem. (as long as it wasn't left out lying around, for long & you reheat it till it's piping hot!)

    P.S. I am not saying do it, that's just my opinion, (and it worries me that I am the only one to say that!) ... maybe I should get you to sign an indemnity form before you eat it!!

    I agree with Alba.
    I would have no problems reheating it again, as long as it came to the boil and simmered for a while.

    you could freeze, defrost & then heat so why not? Although I tend to only reheat twice to be safe so Roast then stew then leftovers but no more: its a treat for the dog by then lol
    why not check out the Rubber chicken Thread to double check :)
    I THINK is a whole sentence, not a replacement for I Know
