What it is

Diced chicken is chicken meat that has been cut into small, bite-sized pieces. It is typically made from chicken breast or thigh meat, which is then processed, cooked, and diced. This form is convenient for use in various prepared foods.

Why it's used

Diced chicken is added to foods as a source of protein and to provide a savory chicken flavor and texture. Manufacturers use it in a wide range of products, including pasta dishes, frozen meals, soups, salads, and sandwiches.

Health notes

Diced chicken is a common food ingredient and is not subject to specific FDA additive regulations. As a protein source, it contributes to a balanced diet. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA evaluate food ingredients, but specific evaluations for 'diced chicken' as a distinct ingredient are not typically listed as they are for more processed additives. Consumption of chicken is generally considered safe as part of a varied diet.

Allergen info

Chicken is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
