About KROGER, CHICKEN VERDE
Kroger Chicken Verde is a prepared, fully cooked chicken product sold under the Kroger private label of The Kroger Co., found in the refrigerated prepared foods or frozen meal section at Kroger, Harris Teeter, and other banner stores. This product features seasoned chicken thigh meat in a tomatillo-based verde sauce, characteristic of Southwestern and Mexican-inspired cuisine.
The chicken thigh meat is seasoned with water, orange juice concentrate, cola syrup containing cane sugar and lemon juice concentrate, salt, dextrose, spices, sea salt, sodium carbonate, and natural flavoring. The verde sauce is made from water, green chile pepper, tomatillo, onions, red bell pepper, vinegar, corn starch as a thickener, chicken broth concentrate, sugar, sea salt, cumin, onion powder, parsley, black pepper, red chile flakes, cayenne pepper, and oregano. The cola syrup is an unusual component in a savory marinade, contributing subtle sweetness and possibly tenderization from its acidity.
