If the chicken is just-thawed and hasn't been sitting around for a week, it could be refrozen - but the quality will be diminished. It may be better to cook it, then freeze it.

If the meat stays below room temperature (for instance, if you have thawed it in the refrigerator) and it is quickly put back into the freezer, you can refreeze the meat with little effect on the texture and flavor of the meat.
