“Tastes like chicken.” We hear that often, and yet, it’s not terribly descriptive. White or dark meat? Grilled, fried, or roasted? Is it an Heirloom Chicken? Wait, what the heck is that? We’re so glad you asked! Trader Joe’s All Natural, Pasture Raised, Boneless Skinless Heirloom Chicken Thighs come from a recognized breed with a genetic line that traces back multiple generations. While many other chickens are raised very quickly and given antibiotics, our Heirlooms are slow-growth, pasture-raised birds, which means they are allowed to mature at a natural rate and forage for food in a natural environment. Additionally, instead of being water- or ice-chilled, (which can lead to water retention and muted flavor) our Heirloom Chickens are air-chilled. So, what do all these carefully complied-to practices and attributes add up to? Chicken Thighs that taste like chicken—the way chicken was always meant to taste, you might say. They’re ideal for inclusion in all kinds of recipes. Try them sprinkled with Ranch Seasoning Blend, baked, and served over orzo pasta; dredged in flour, fried to a delectable golden brown, and drizzled with Organic Spicy Honey Sauce; or roughly chopped and stir-fried with your favorite veggies, and simmered in Thai Yellow Curry Sauce.
