Thawing Chicken. Thaw frozen chicken slowly and safely. It will take anywhere from 24 hours to two days to thaw a whole chicken in the refrigerator, and about 2 to 9 hours for cut-up chicken parts (less for boneless pieces). You can thaw chicken more quickly in a cold water bath or by using the defrost cycle of the microwave.
While cooked poultry can keep for several days in the refrigerator, fresh, uncooked poultry will only keep for a day or two. Cooked chicken products can be frozen for up to four months for long-term storage. Processed chicken nuggets or patties have a slightly shorter frozen life and should be used within three months of freezing.
