I bought 2 half price chickens yesterday and only room in freezer for one and had dinner sorted so whacked the other one in slow cooker which finished about 9.00pm last night. I wrapped it in tin foil and stored it in microwave. No room in fridge and kitchen quite cool. I now want to use it tonight but do I need to reheat it thoroughly and would that make it dry? Or would it be ok cold with hot gravy?

Many thanks

Either, in my opinion. If you do reheat, make sure you do it thoroughly; if you add hot gravy that should counteract any drying out. You could have it cold with hot gravy, I suppose, it is one of my mum's favourites. Used to have to have it as a kid, and I now loathe it.

You could nuke it in the microwave but I would put it in a pan on the hob and heat it in the gravy for a minute or two.

Thanks. I reheated it very high in the oven and am still alive to tell the tale. It was melt in the mouth juicy. First time I have done a chicken in sc and wll def do again but make sure it is timed for dinner!

I've never done a chicken in the SC either, but it sounds good. How did you do it, twingle?
