Question

how long can you leave cooked chicken strips out, without being refrigerated before they arent good to eat anymore?

Answer 1

Less than 10secs, when in my presence. Yummy~

Answer 2

2 hours..

Answer 3

unrefrigerated, they shou ld not be left out more than the length of time it takes them to be less than 100 degrees f.  

Answer 4

no more than 2 hours when thawing.

Answer 5

Chicken left out a room temp should never be left out longer then 2 hours. After that two hour window the chicken starts to spoil due to chemical reactions and microscopic organisms. This will start to cause bacteria and viruses in the chicken. And also when chicken is left at room temp it looses alot of its natural juices.

Answer 6

I would suggest only an hour.  Two hours and they would need to be discarded.  

Answer 7

Chicken, cooked or raw, should not be out of the reefer for more than 3 hours. after that bacteria begins to take over. But 3 hours is pushing it! put 'em in the fridge right away. hope this helps, chef paul
