Should be cooked within 48 hours. Even if you froze it a week before the due date on the original supermarket package, the chicken is "ready to spoil" as oon as it is thawed.

When baking chicken breasts if you leave the skin on doesn't it lose its low fat meal idea?

The skin of the chicken does have a great deal of fat in it. Cooking the meat with the skin on increases the fat content over cooking it with the skin off. However, it can help keep the meat moist. If you remove the skin before eating, it will help reduce the fat content.
