What it is
Seasoned chicken is chicken meat that has been treated with seasonings, which can include salt, spices, herbs, and sometimes other flavor enhancers or preservatives. It is typically cooked or partially cooked and may be sold in various forms, such as whole pieces, diced, or shredded.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add seasoned chicken to foods to provide a savory protein component and enhance flavor. It is commonly found in ready-to-eat meals, frozen dinners, deli items, sandwiches, salads, and wraps.
Health notes
Seasoned chicken is a source of protein and other nutrients. The sodium content can vary widely depending on the seasonings used. Regulatory bodies like the FDA oversee the safety of food ingredients, and seasoned chicken is generally recognized as safe when prepared and handled properly. Extensive evaluations by international bodies like JECFA have not raised specific concerns for seasoned chicken at typical consumption levels.
Allergen info
Chicken itself is not one of the nine major allergens. However, seasonings or marinades used in seasoned chicken may contain other allergens like soy, wheat, or dairy. Gluten may also be present if wheat-based ingredients are used in the seasoning.
