Gardein recently added to its portfolio of plant-based products with an all-new meat-free chicken alternative with a spicy kick. The Nashville Hot Chick'n Tenders are made with a proprietary blend of pea and wheat protein are coated in a breading made with ancient grain flour. According to the brand, "chicken is... the fastest-growing protein type in meat alternatives, growing 26 percent since February of 2019." This new product not only has the potential to satisfy a desire for a great-tasting meatless substitute but also provide a hint of spice from dried Chile de Arbol peppers and spices like paprika.
Gardein now also offers other globally inspired meatless wing-style products like the Gochujang Style Chick'n Wings and the Chipotle Georgia Style Chick'n Wings.
