Dynamic duo: Pair our Chicken Train marinades and breaders together for the ultimate fried chicken experience

Popularised by major fast food chains like KFC, Slim Chickens, and Wingstop, fried chicken is one of the most frequently ordered out-of-home dishes. These chains have set a high standard, however, and customer expectations are equally elevated. 

A successful fried chicken offering hinges on two key factors: a succulent and juicy marinade that infuses flavour deep into the chicken, and a crispy breader that adds texture, crunch, and that first hit of flavour.

That’s why our Chicken Train Piri Piri Base Marinades and Breaders are the winning combination. Made with premium ingredients and seasonings and designed to work perfectly alongside each other, they give an authentic fried appearance and flavour to a range of chicken products from breasts and burgers to wings and strips - even whole, half and quarter chickens.

Authentic flavours

Start with our Chicken Train Piri Piri Base Marinades, a range of five authentic base flavours guaranteed to get the taste buds tingling. From mild Lemon and Herb to super spicy Extra Hot, these marinades cover all the flavour profiles popular with today’s chicken consumers from delicate to spicy. This allows you to customise the taste and heat level to suit your customers' preferences and offer variety.

Available in 2kg resealable tubs, Chicken Train Piri Piri Base Marinades are quick and easy to use. Simply mix with oil and water, brush the marinade over the chicken and allow up to four hours for the chicken to take on all the flavour. Chicken can then be steamed, grilled or oven-cooked for a healthier option, but why stop there? Give your chicken that signature crispy coating and a final layer of flavour with Chicken Train Breaders. 

Available in three varieties - the popular and original Southern Fried Chicken, Southern Fried Hot for customers that like a slight kick, and Southern Fried Light and Crispy, which, as the name suggests, is lighter in colour and texture and offers a crispier bite. All are available in 12.5kg recyclable packs.

Together, our tried and tested marinades and breaders give coated chicken that crispy on the outside, succulent on the inside texture as well as full-on flavour through to the last bite. Serve alongside a range of sauces and sides or, for a more premium offering, why not add fried chicken to sandwiches, wraps and tacos and load up with extra toppings?

Karen Heavey, Brand Manager at Kerry Foodservice, comments: “Once deeply rooted in Southern American culture, fried chicken has become easily accessible thanks to our Chicken Train Marinades and Breadings. A convenient meal option for customers dining in, taking away or having it delivered, fried chicken is in high demand and is seeing steady growth in the fast food and casual dining sectors. Be part of this exciting trend.”
