Just seen a similar deal for Iceland so thought i'd share these as they are 100% chicken breast with NO ADDED WATER OR SALT.
They come in 700g bags which are currently on a 3 for £8 offer. Works out at £3.80 per kg. I've been using these for months an they are great. They say cook from frozen but i always defrost and cook then as normal. Worth stocking up with the offer being on.
Chicken Breast (87%) , Water , Salt , Acidity Regulators (Sodium Carbonates, Sodium Citrates)
So it's the same deal to the Iceland one which was 1.5kg for £5. these are 100% chicken, no added water or salt.

Thanks, order coming tomorrow so have added these on!
Usually buy their tray of fresh chicken breast for £5.50 but gotta use it fairly quickly. Handy to buy frozen.

That is why i started getting these, only two of us so i used to buy a large fresh pack and then freeze what we didn't use before use by date anyway. Saved to more hassle.

I have never had a frozen chicken breast - are they 'drier' than usual when defrosted?

Depends on how you cook them. I buy fresh & then freeze them. If I cut them into chunks, then they can dry out. Leave them as whole breasts & the retain moisture quite well. Could just be my cooking technique though.

i find them to be absolutely fine, I defrost then cook as normal, either oven or in the frying pan. used them in sauces, wrapped in parma ham and in fajitas and all great.

Just as a heads up, Tesco's cheaper frozen chicken is by far the worst out all the supermarkets, full of water which makes he chicken a weird consistency. Haven't tried this stuff though!

That's not what I said. I said the cheaper stuff is the worst out of all supermarket frozen chicken I have personally tried. But thanks for your contribution to the discussion :smiley:

No, you said it was the worst out of all supermarket chicken then you said you hadn't tried it, which makes your point meaningless.

No, he/she said they hadn't tried the chicken this deal refers to.
The chicken which is the worst he/she has ever tried is the cheaper tesco chicken with added water.
