If I cook the whole thing today, how long will the meat keep in the fridge? a few days? a week?

A few days definately. You can get food poisoning if left too long even if it's in the fridge. I'd say leave it in the fridge for 2 days maximum

The rule of thumb is to pitch anything left in the fridge over 4 days.

chicken is like fish it can go bad pretty quick. A few days is all i'd keep it for. And it all depends on how good your fridge is too at keeping things fresh.

Certainly not a week - three days max, if it's a good fridge. Chicken is notorious for causing food poisoning.

Never keep anything like this in the fridge for more than four days. Always be sure it's TIGHTLY covered and sealed.

I wouldn't keep it longer than 3 days. Most importantly, make sure you cover it in the fridge with clingfilm or something to stop cross contamination.

Just a few days. Freeze what you won't be eating after it's cooked.

4 days if covered or wrapped well. You can add to soups & salads and make leftovers!
