Seeking Guidance on Rotisserie Chicken
I’m curious about how long rotisserie chicken remains safe to eat after purchasing it. Woolworths mentions a 24-hour limit. Also, how nutritious are these chickens? They taste great and make meal prep, like salads, super convenient. Additionally, why do some people avoid reheating them? Any insights on their preparation process or nutritional value would be much appreciated! 😊
Just picked these up for the first time since childhood at 39 years old. They taste just as amazing as I remembered! I’ve already eaten four!

When it comes to eating rotisserie chicken, a good rule of thumb is to consume it within 3 to 4 days after purchase if stored properly in the refrigerator. Woolworths’ recommendation of 24 hours is more conservative, likely for food safety reasons. Beyond that, the quality and flavor may decrease, but it can still be safe to eat if it’s been stored at the right temperature.
Rotisserie chickens are generally quite nutritious; they provide a good source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. The seasoning used can add some flavor but may also increase sodium levels, depending on the brand. The skin can be higher in fat and calories, so it’s a good idea to consider how much skin you consume, especially if you’re watching your dietary intake.
As for reheating, many people choose to eat rotisserie chicken cold, especially in salads, to enjoy the convenience and flavor. However, if you do want to reheat it, warming it in the oven helps maintain moisture better than a microwave. When reheating, ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for food safety.
Overall, enjoy your rotisserie chicken in whatever way you prefer, and just be mindful of storage times!
