Exceed expectations with gluten-friendly stuffed chicken cordons

7 November 2023, Vancouver, BC  - Accommodate greater dietary preferences on your Winter menu with Intercity Packers’ gourmet product line of stuffed chicken cordons that feature premium, chef-inspired fillings and multiple breading options. Compared to other stuffed chicken products on the market, Intercity Packers’ cordons are low in sodium, made with superior ingredients, and as of today, available in a gluten-friendly option!

Stuffed chicken cordons offer labour-saving opportunities for your restaurant, retail or healthcare establishment. Additionally, opting fully prepared chicken cordons offers the following benefits:

The demand for gluten-friendly products has grown significantly over the past 15 years. With increased awareness around gluten allergies and sensitivities, your front-of-house staff will continue to receive more and more inquiries about your gluten-friendly offering. Intercity Packers' customers will now have the option to offer those valued guests a gluten-friendly solution, that doesn’t sacrifice flavour or quality.

Intercity Packers is the first Canadian supplier to produce a gluten-friendly chicken cordon, and the bar is being set high. Our gluten-friendly cordons are a crowd-pleasing option that’ll exceed the expectations of your guests with and without sensitivities alike. By utilizing a rice-based Japanese-style breadcrumb (JBC), which has larger flakes than wheat-based JBC, the breading is extra crunchy. Reach out to your Intercity Packers Sales Representative to try for yourself - you may be surprised by which breading option you enjoy more.

Each stuffed chicken cordon is made with care by our team of expert butchers. To start, the filling is assembled by hand, then the cordon is lightly breaded, par fried then flash frozen to lock in the freshness. Between the breading, portion size and filling, let’s compare all the different ways our butchers customize this product line.
