Question: how long can you refrigerate cooked chicken and rice?
Answer: Once cooked, if stored at the correct temperature (five degrees centigrade, as soon as it has stopped steaming) you could keep in fridge for up to three days (72 hours). Can be thawed and stored in fridge for up to two days (48 hours) and they should be defrosted and thawed in the fridge -- not out on the bench.
