The iconic chicken dipper is arguably one of the nation’s most-loved foods, and has remained a popular part of British dinner time for generations.
But despite 65% of shoppers having eaten food containing meat substitutes, there still hasn’t been a suitable replacement for families to turn to… until now!
Famous for its iconic Crispy Chicken Dippers, Birds Eye has announced the launch of its Green Cuisine Chicken-free Dippers, which boast the same taste and texture of the original dinnertime staple.
The new range also includes Chicken-free Nuggets and Chicken-free Southern Fried Strips; made from a nutritious meat substitute that is rich in pea protein, low in saturated fat and is a source of fibre.
So, whether you’re after a little heat with the Southern Fried Strips, a sucker for the crispy batter found on the dippers or love the crunchy bread-crumbed nuggets you can now enjoy meat-free versions of your favourite chicken pieces without compromising on taste!
Anne-Marie Gayer, Senior Brand Manager at Birds Eye, said: “We know families have enjoyed our great tasting chicken product range for generations, and our Chicken Dippers in particular are a firm favourite at dinner tables across the nation.
"But with more families than ever now cutting down on meat, we don’t want anyone to miss out on the great taste. We have spent a long time perfecting a vegan recipe that offers the same delicious taste and texture of our iconic chicken pieces, and are confident that our new Green Cuisine Chicken-free range does just that – all powered by plants!”.
The new Birds Eye’s Green Cuisine Chicken range is available for £2.50 in Morrisons, Asda, and Sainsbury’s, with Tesco set to stock the products from the 26 th October.
