To use, simply open the package and add the pre-sliced chicken to your desired meal. It can be eaten cold on sandwiches or salads. For a warm dish, you can gently heat the slices in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until warmed through. Alternatively, add them to pasta dishes, casseroles, or wraps during the last few minutes of cooking. The ranch and bacon flavors are already infused, so no additional seasoning is usually needed.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike raw chicken, this product is fully cooked, saving preparation time. The uncured bacon provides a smoky flavor without the use of added nitrates or nitrites. The ranch seasoning offers a creamy, herbaceous taste that is distinct from plain chicken.
