How to store the leftover pasta

To store leftover chicken and shrimp pasta properly, follow these steps to ensure food safety and maintain the quality of your dish:

• Allow the pasta to cool: Before storing, let the pasta cool down to room temperature. However, please don’t leave it out for more than two hours, as bacteria can grow rapidly at room temperature.
• Separate the components: Separate the pasta, sauce, and protein (chicken and shrimp) to prevent the pasta from becoming too soggy.
• Use airtight containers: Transfer the pasta, sauce, and protein into separate airtight containers. This helps to preserve the freshness and flavor of each component.
• Refrigerate promptly: Place the containers in the refrigerator as soon as possible. Ideally, store the leftovers at a temperature of 40°F (4°C) or below.

Consume within a safe time frame: Leftover chicken and shrimp pasta should be consumed within 3 to 4 days to ensure food safety and quality. If you don’t plan to eat the leftovers within this time frame, consider freezing them instead.

To freeze leftover chicken and shrimp pasta:

• Follow steps 1-3 above, allowing the pasta to cool and separating the components.
• Wrap the containers tightly: If using airtight containers, seal the lids tightly. Alternatively, use heavy-duty aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap to cover the containers.
• Label and date the containers: Write the contents and date on each container to help you keep track of the leftovers.
• Store in the freezer: Place the containers in the freezer, where they can be stored for up to 2 to 3 months.

How to reheat

When you’re ready to reheat your leftover chicken and shrimp pasta, remove the desired portion from the refrigerator or freezer. Thaw frozen leftovers in the refrigerator overnight or in the microwave using the defrost setting. Reheat the pasta, sauce, and protein separately on the stovetop or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating. Combine the components when they are hot and serve immediately.
