Yep, it will be fine to eat today. I would say that it could last about 4 days. Eat it hot or cold, but make sure you heat it through thoroughly if you are reheating it.
But a cold chicken sandwich of pre-cooked chicken is 1 of the best meals out there!

This reminds me of the questions I get from my son who's in college! Yes, it's safe to eat . If it was cooked thoroughly the first time, that is! Reheat on low and enjoy. I wouldn't eat leftovers after 48 hours personally.

You can eat for the next couple of days, but always ensure any cooked food is reheated correctly, ie all the way through. If only warmed up, the microbes, thrive and multiply. This applies to any reheated food.

Cooked meats, cleanly stored in sterile containers and refrigerated at no more than 40 degrees will keep for approximately two days afterward. If you've kept them for longer than this time you can still eat them provided that you raise the internal temperature to 190 degrees for at least 20 mnutes. But if you do this you will likely want to feed them to the cat as they will be dried out and nasty.

I keep mine for about 3 days. Cooked it last night, had some in a pasta dish. Tonight will make chicken risotto, tomorrow will make curry, then boil up the bones to make a stock to freeze.

Yep you can eat it today, 4 days is the max you keep chicken for after it's been cooked, it won't be safe after that.

I only keep it for a couple of days, BUT you HAVE to reheat it back upto the point where ALL the bacteria are killed (boiling) as bacteria thrive at blood temprature.

Yes it should be alright to eat today but not after 2 days because it will of had too long for Germs to breed longer than 2 days.
So yes i would say it should be safe to eat but throw it out after tonight
