New from Kroger
Kroger has upgraded its top-selling Home Chef Fried Chicken.
It's now double-breaded and hand-dipped with a signature flavor
boasting 18 different spices and a tremendous crunch along with new
packaging to prolong crispiness, according to Kroger.
The new breading includes tapioca starch and potato starch, which
helps both the hold and crunch of the breading. Garlic, paprika and
thyme are among the new spices.
The new packaging is a paper gable box that includes venting holes
and a window for freshness and convenience.
Kroger's fried chicken can be purchased in an 8-piece meal, a la carte
or as tenders.
For a decade, Kroger's Home Chef line has provided customers with
not only fried chicken but also other easy, convenient meal solutions to
make cooking at home an experience that is simple and delicious, said
Dan De La Rosa, Kroger's group vice president of fresh merchandising.
" From the doorsteps of customers to Kroger stores, Home Chef has
served families across America, introducing new flavors, elevating
classic favorites and always promising home cooks a meal that is
achievable. We can't wait to see what the next decade brings. "
Over the last 10 years, Home Chef has crafted more than 350 million
meals served to 48 states. It has tested and tasted more than 12,000
recipes with 4,500 of those recipes making the customer menu.
Home Chef has launched more than 500 products across the Kroger
Family of Stores and opened four production and distribution facilities

" It's amazing to see how much Home Chef has grown over the past
10 years, continuing to bring ease and convenience to home cooking,
without sacrificing taste, " said Erik Jensen, CEO of Home Chef. " We
are looking forward to ten more years of innovating and delivering
