Chicken Meat Handling
Q: Is it safe to re-freeze chicken meat after it has been thawed?
A: Repeatedly thawing and re-freezing chicken is not advisable, as it significantly affects the quality of the meat, taste and texture. Repeated thawing, especially on open kitchen counters under ambient temperatures, may also lead to bacterial growth on the surface of the chicken meat. It is advisable to divide chicken into preferred cooking size and portion before initial freezing, and thawed only once before cooking.
