Meatless Indian Meals

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Shicken Makes Comforting Meals with a Vegan Chicken Alternative

— November 12, 2021 — Lifestyle
Enjoying quick and easy meatless Indian meals is especially easy thanks to Shicken, which creates chef-made vegan meals that are prepared with a plant-based chicken substitute made from soy protein. The authentic home-cooked Indian frozen ready meals are entirely plant-based and they use only natural ingredients primarily sourced locally within the UK.

The flash-frozen meals are prepared with soy-based Shicken pieces that are treated with a tandoori marinade, then cooked on a live flame to achieve light charring. In the range of meatless products, Shicken offers options like curries, Tikka Masala, Korma and Saag. These products are packaged in compostable sugarcane-based packaging with 100% recyclable paper sleeves.

These ready-made meals support the growing number of consumers who want healthy, convenient and sustainable mealtime solutions that take the stress out of time in the kitchen.
