Storing and Reheating Korean Chicken
Leftover chicken can make a useful second meal, but it should be cooled promptly and reheated with the method that suits its coating or sauce.
Refrigerate promptly
Place leftovers in shallow containers and refrigerate within two hours. Do not keep a large warm pile sealed on the counter.
Separate when possible
Store sauce, pickles, slaw, and chicken separately. This preserves texture and prevents cold sides from warming during reheating.
Use dry heat for crisp food
An oven or air fryer can restore some crispness. A microwave is faster but softens crust. Follow appliance instructions and avoid overheating small pieces.
Reheat thoroughly
Health Canada advises reheating leftovers to 74°C. Check the thickest pieces and discard leftovers with questionable storage history.
