There is no harm in eating this food as long as the chicken was slaughtered according to Islamic rites. The word of disbelief from a disbeliever does not change anything about its status. What is forbidden from the food of disbelievers is that which requires ritual slaughter if it is slaughtered in a way that contravenes the legal slaughter. As for what a Muslim or a person of the Book has slaughtered according to legal slaughter, there is no harm in consuming it, regardless of who prepared it.
