Frequently Asked Questions About Costco chicken breast bits
Are Costco chicken breast bits fully cooked?
Not necessarily; the name alone does not confirm whether Costco chicken breast bits are cooked. Follow the package directions, and treat them as raw unless the packaging clearly says they are ready to eat.
Can you meal-prep with Costco chicken breast bits?
Yes, Costco chicken breast bits can be portioned into meal-prep meals. Refrigerate cooked portions promptly in sealed containers, and keep raw chicken separate from ready-to-eat ingredients.
Can Costco chicken breast bits be frozen?
Yes, Costco chicken breast bits can be frozen in an airtight freezer-safe package. Thaw them in the refrigerator; if they were sold raw and thawed, cook them before refreezing.
How do you reheat Costco chicken breast bits without drying them out?
Reheat cooked Costco chicken breast bits gently, covered, with a small splash of water or broth. Stop as soon as they are hot throughout; prolonged heating makes lean chicken dry and chewy.
