I just ate two ovenbaked chicken thighs. I want to do it again, but make a larger batch and store the leftovers in the fridge.
If I make a weeks worth of cooked chicken, can I store the chicken in the fridge for a week after cooking it?
Has anyone ever frozen chicken AFTER cooking it? If so, is it still edible and how long can you keep it frozen?

Also, does anyone know any good food to eat with the chicken? Rice? Beans?

Also, does anyone know how to microwave chicken? Every time I try to microwave a chicken thigh, it shrivels up into half of the original size, and is overcooked.

It's not. Most people own a microwave.

What? Are you writing this rather than posting soyjak? Or are you saying that you expect other people to post soyjak?

Stop being such an obvious redditor ans tell me how to make food

The microwave isn't for cooking meat, you stupid faggot. It's for reheating things, warming water or melting butter. That's it. I'll tell you how to make food. Not in a fucking microwave. Bake or fry your thighs like an adult. Of course they'll keep for a few days in the fridge. Is the concept of preserving food new to your smoothbrain? Jesus Christ, man. Get your shit together and go back to plebbit where you belong. There's plenty of fellow soyboy meal preppers there to help you with your insufferable faggotry

Most cooked foods only last 3 to 4 days in the fridge and about a month or two in the freezer. But with frozen food it's better to reheat it in the oven instead of nuking it in the microwave for 10+ minutes and it's better to cook another batch of thighs at that point and baking is pretty low effort. The microwave was made to reheat food but if you want to get truly autistic you could try a toaster oven. Wild rice or any type of vegetables go good with thighs.
Thighs are really good nothings wrong with making a bunch of them fuck the soyjaks

I've been cooking a week ahead for myself (keeping the food in the fridge) for about three years with no ill effects.
You'll be fine.

What made you so mad?
I don't prep food, but it sounds like a good idea. Can you explain your hatred of preppers to me?

Solid idea, I do this all the time.

>If I make a weeks worth of cooked chicken, can I store the chicken in the fridge for a week after cooking it?

Yes.

>Has anyone ever frozen chicken AFTER cooking it? If so, is it still edible and how long can you keep it frozen?

Not a great idea in my book. The freezing mushes it. Best to do a weekly batch.

>Also, does anyone know how to microwave chicken?

Don’t microwave it. Eat it cold like a chicken salad or cold sandwich, or toss it in a tiny bit of oil and oven broil it (over rice, hot sandwich, etc), or cook it in a pan with other hot items (enchiladas, stir frys, soups, etc). For thighs, best storage is cut into 1” strips and deboned. This is simultaneously handy for a quick fix without further slicing and amenable to shredding or cubing.

If you do a dozen medium boiled eggs and some sauteed peppers/onions at the same time you can whip up a (mostly) healthy snack in no time, just add spinach, bread, rice, tortillas, fucking whatever floats your boat. Plus you can lock in a lot of food spending at the beginning of the week. Good luck faggot.

maybe he talking about reheating it? I hope so.

No, lmao. I meant cooking it, from raw to cooked. It actually works, and I've seen it done successfully before in person(and then tasted it).
I just can't figure out how to do it myself.
