About CHICKEN THIGH MEAT FOR FAJITAS
Kroger Chicken Thigh Meat for Fajitas is a marinated fresh poultry product from The Kroger Co.'s Kroger brand, sold in the Poultry, Chicken and Turkey category. Designed as a ready-to-cook fajita protein, it consists of boneless skinless chicken thigh meat pre-seasoned with a moisture-retaining marinade, intended for grilling, pan-searing, or baking before slicing for fajita assembly.
The primary ingredient is boneless skinless chicken thigh, followed by water and a 2% or less solution containing natural flavor, spice, salt, yeast extract, citric acid, sodium lactate, and sodium phosphate. Sodium lactate serves as a shelf-life extender and moisture retainer; sodium phosphate helps bind water into the muscle tissue. Citric acid contributes mild acidity for flavor balance and microbial control. The marinade is comparatively minimal relative to many commercial marinated poultry products, which is consistent with a fajita-cut that is meant to take on additional flavors from cooking and accompaniments.
