Notes

  • You can freeze marinated Bourbon street chicken and shrimp for up to 2 to 3 months. To extend their shelf life, you need to double wrap them or use an airtight container. Remember cooked shrimp and chicken can last for only 3 to 4 days. I recommend eating your leftovers at most 1 to 2 days after cooking this meal. 
  • Reheat your stored cooked chicken and shrimp, not more than once. You can use a microwave, oven, or skillet for reheating this meal.
