Raw chicken should never be at room temperature. Cooked chicken can spend maybe one or two hours at that temp.

You can safely leave raw chicken out at room temperature for about two hours — or one hour if the temperature is above 90 degrees Fahrenheit — says the United States Department of Agriculture. The reason is that bacteria grow rapidly when raw chicken is kept at temperatures between 40° F and 140° F.
