Can you keep cooked chicken in the marinated juices you cooked it in? - eviltoast

Does that reduce how long it keeps or degrade it in any way?

    Ok, I might do an A/B test and keep it with a piece of chicken in B and see how that compares after a few days

      You’re overthinking this.

      If it was cooked with the chicken then it’s fine for effectively as long the chicken is good for.

      After a few days either way your cooked leftover chicken is nearing its end of life regardless.

      Not sure why you got a downvote for that. The chicken will continue to absorb flavor from the sauce, and it’ll probably keep it a bit more moist as well
