Hi!
I defrosted wayyyy to much chicken breast today (I totally calculated wrong), can I just re-freeze it? If not, how long will it last in the fridge? I usually throw out any unused meat after 24hours of defrosting, I would much rather save it if I could.
Also someone told me that I should never defrost meat/chicken on the counter and only in the fridge, is this true??
Thanks everyone!

You can cook it and then freeze the cooked chicken.

Yes to cooking and then refreezing. Yes--only thaw in the fridge not on the counter (due to bacteria growth).

another question, someone told me if you marinate it, it extends "the life" of the chicken, if this were true, can I marinate it and then refreeze (it raw)?

But I do not know about re-freezing it again while still raw.
Why not marinate the extras you have now so you can make a whole new dish to serve tomorrow?
