Keeping Chicken Wings 1kg

- 1–2 days only. Chicken is the one thing in the shop you should cook the day you buy it.
- In the freezer
- Up to 3 months. Freeze in the portions you will cook, not one lump.

- In the fridge overnight, on a plate, covered. Never thaw chicken at room temperature.
Wash the board and knife in hot soapy water straight after — not the chicken itself.
