Can chicken be reheated after being in fridge?

This is the first time I've heard this too, so I don't think it's that common for people to get sick from reheating poultry. I'm not saying there's no risk, but if it's that common for people to get sick after reheating poultry, I think we would've heard about it before - and there would be a lot of people getting sick every year after eating Thanksgiving leftovers.
If you do a search, it says on several websites that it's safe to reheat chicken, as long as it was stored correctly (for instance, as long as it wasn't left out a long time before being put in the fridge, and the fridge is at the correct temp) and it's reheated thoroughly. -

I've done it all my life, but now I'm wondering if I've just been lucky? I've also heard that reheating rice is also potentially dangerous, and I've done that as well to. I've never even gotten slightly ill from doing these things though.

She's right. Unless that chicken gets a good boiling, it's dangerous to warm it up and eat it.
Ummmm… I've heated leftover fired chicken the next day at 350 degrees for 10 minutes all my life.
Day 3 I eat the thigh and wing cold though.
Tell you what…When I send my ex-wife her money…you can lick the stamps. -

Overcautious. What temp is your fridge at? I've had reheated chicken many times and never had a problem. From now on you should put food in the freezer because its good for about a year.
Smile and pass it on

Went into asda earlier, and woman at hot food/deli counter told me once you refrigerate chicken it cant be reheated next day. I asked can i put it in a wok instead and she said no, is she right or is she over cautious?
You can refrigerate cooked chicken to eat the following day. It's risky to leave uncooked chicken in the refrigerator because uncooked chicken gots to be at 40 degrees farenheit or below in order to stop bacteria from growing on it.
So if you purchased that cooked chicken from the hot deli, eat it all or throw away the remaining because chicken cooked at those places tastes nasty reheated. Lol
