🧊 Safety & Storage
Store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or freeze individual portions for up to 3 months. Always serve at room temperature, never hot. Wash hands and all surfaces thoroughly after handling raw chicken. Discard any uneaten food after 2 hours at room temperature.
⚠️ Recipe Drift Warning
Do not substitute chicken with fatty cuts or dark meat without adjusting oil quantities. Avoid replacing white rice with brown rice unless your dog tolerates higher fiber, as it affects calcium absorption. Never use onion, garlic, or grapes as vegetable substitutions. All substitutions require veterinary nutritionist consultation to maintain calcium-phosphorus balance.
