What it is

Roasted chicken and chicken fat are derived from chicken meat and its rendered fat. The chicken is typically roasted to develop flavor and texture, and the fat is rendered from the chicken skin and other fatty tissues. These ingredients provide a savory chicken flavor and richness to food products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use roasted chicken and chicken fat to add a concentrated chicken flavor and a rich mouthfeel to processed foods. They are commonly found in savory products such as canned soups, sauces, prepared meals, and snacks where a distinct chicken taste is desired.

Health notes

Roasted chicken and chicken fat are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food ingredients. They are a source of protein and fat. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated chicken and chicken fat, and EFSA has also reviewed related fat ingredients. At typical consumption levels, they do not pose health concerns for most people.

Allergen info

Chicken is not one of the nine FDA major food allergens. Therefore, roasted chicken and chicken fat are not considered major allergens.
