For some reason, my fridge has started to freeze items. I cooked a chicken last night and put the leftovers in the fridge, planning a curry for tonight's dinner. The cooked chicken has now got ice crystals and is partially frozen. Will it be safe to reheat and eat?

Yes it’s fine.
might be worth adjusting the temp on the fridge

Yes it's fine. Just heat thoroughly as you would have done anyway

You were planning to eat it after thinking it would be kept cold in your fridge overnight so the fact is has been kept a bit colder won’t mean it is any less edible.

Enjoy the curry.
