Perfect to serve plated with veg, salad or fries, or in a bun as a fast-food option, the schnitzel has an artisan, handmade look. The new product joins a number of gluten-free options now included in the Golden Valley Foods poultry range, such as chicken goujons and chunks.
The Golden Valley Foods gluten-free breaded chicken schnitzel is 125g in size and is available in small boxes of just 12, taking up less room in the freezer and requiring fewer upfront costs to purchase.
Gordon Lauder, managing director of Central Foods, said: “Our Golden Valley Foods range of poultry products is popular across the food service sector, including among the fast-food sector, schools, leisure outlets, cafés and restaurants. With one in 100 people affected by coeliac disease, it’s crucial for food service operators to provide gluten-free options for their customers.
“Our new gluten-free breaded schnitzel is incredibly versatile and will give coeliac customers the chance to enjoy a chicken schnitzel either in a bun from a fast-food outlet or as a plated meal in a sit-down establishment. It’s so juicy, tender and tasty that it will go down well with all customers, not just those with dietary requirements, and should be marketed and offered as a great product for all.”
Golden Valley Foods is an own brand created by Central Foods. It includes a wide range of poultry products such as wings, nuggets, steaks, Kievs, burgers, goujons and chunks.
