Popcorn Chicken

Unlike typical fast-food popcorn chicken, ours features tender chicken thigh pieces coated in nutrient-rich almond meal instead of processed breadcrumbs. We use RSPCA-approved chicken, prepare everything fresh (never frozen), and include a complete meal with creamy mashed potatoes and vegetables. According to the Australian Chicken Meat Federation, chicken thigh provides superior flavour and essential nutrients, including iron and zinc. Plus, you'll enjoy restaurant-quality taste without the preservatives or excess sodium found in takeaway options.

For optimal crispiness and flavour, we recommend microwave heating for 2-3 minutes on high (pierce the film first) or stovetop heating on low-medium. The almond coating stays deliciously crispy when reheated properly. For more detailed instructions on all our reheating methods, visit our comprehensive reheating guide.

This meal is 100% gluten-free (Coeliac Australia Endorsed standards), making it perfect for those with coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity. It's also free from fish, sesame, and soy. The meal contains milk (in the mash), almonds (coating), and eggs. We cater to many dietary needs - check our full list of dietary options to find meals that suit your requirements.
