How long does cooked chicken breast last?

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to bring healthier lunches to work. I'd like to cook up some chicken breast on Sunday for the next week. How many days do you think I can do ahead of time?

If you want to make extra, you could freeze it. Thaw it out as needed. I do that with my shredded chicken.

I'm a real novice with this. How would you store it in the freezer? In those freezer bags? And then to thaw it, just put it in the fridge for a day? Or how long?

Thank you!
