Chicken fillet rolls rule the roost when it comes to deli dining, it has been revealed.
More than a fifth of people rank them as their top food while at least a quarter would travel up to 5km for the treat.
This is according to research from Circle K, which surveyed 1,000 people ahead of releasing their new Katsu Chicken Fillet Roll.
Senior market director Judy Glover said: “Many people on the move are looking for convenient meal solutions that they can grab in a matter of minutes.
“Research shows that while Ireland’s infamous chicken fillet roll remains a deli food staple, consumers are savvier than ever when it comes to their food and demand quality, originality and choice on a plate.”
With a warm breaded chicken fillet on a bed of greens and coleslaw in a fresh, crispy roll, smothered in Katsu curry sauce, the Katsu Chicken Roll is set to become a firm customer favourite.
Delis at Circle K sites nationwide will still offer all the familiar food choices, but joining the menu are a range of hot lunches such as fish and chips, chicken spice box, rustic Italian Pizza as well as new items to its hugely popular Mexican and burger ranges.
