HAD TO TRY THIS! Chicken Deltas NEW in ALDI

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Hi all, its been brought to my attention that at the top under Roosters, it says made with 100% chicken breast. I missed it, apologies. All the best everyone 😋

[@chrisfrench5304]

Since when is chicken breast grey/brown ?

Chopped and shaped chicken uses a process called grinding (a method of deboning in which the softer parts of the chicken carcass are forced through a mesh, leaving behind the more solid pieces, resulting in a meat paste.

Forget the powder stuff.. just cook the chicken, slice it onto a bed of rice, and pour over some 'Mayflower' curry sauce for quick andveasy meal.... just a thought.?? Another great review though Gaz.👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@fattmatt200]

The packet works out at £9 a kilo, pretty sure you could make your own for half the price with no mechanically recovered meat. It would be pretty quick to make these from scratch..

[@kevowski]

Minced up chicken slop in a spiced coating, no thanks Aldi..

[@stevefarmer3526]

Hi Gareth. Coming to you from South Africa. Watching you do your chicken triangles in the air fryer. Pouring the seasoning over portions. To make clean up easier, place a disposable paper cooking sheet down then put you food on top of it. Makes clean up a lot easier. Do it with all my dishes. Keep up the good work. Steve.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thanks Steve, all the best 👍

[@blb2022]

When I see I'm New on Aldi's food that means it will be discontinued in 3 to 4 weeks time due to poor sales😅. I made something like this ages ago with boneless chicken thighs and crushed sweet chilli Doritos and it was really tasty and so easy to do. Cheers Gareth. 👍

[@hannahridgeway4746]

Mechanically reclaimed chicken…but crunchy! 🇬🇧

[@AllanNeaves-qn3zr]

Well Gareth, they are what they are. We have to trust what they print on the label, 100%chicken breast meat. Not bank breaking price. Chips and maybe beans or a salad. Put two in a roll or a baguette, bit of coleslaw. Needs more spices (bigger sachets) Does seem a lot of faffing about to cook, then spice on & back into oven. Handy snack for the children at lunch or tea time. Nice little video, interesting and informative. See you in the next video Allan&Family

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thanks Allan 👍 hope your well mate and family, Merry Christmas 🎅

[@stevelee2787]

I think I'll pass on these mate but thanks for checking them out😂😂

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

No worries

[@JilliDoodles]

Nothing wrong with mechanically recovered meat. They use high pressure water not chemicals and all parts are used so no waste.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Yum 🤣

[@MarcusWainwright]

Definitely picking some of these up thanks for sharing

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Enjoy pal 👍

[@ChrisyC567]

The face of excitement at 4:O2 mins. Love it...! 😂😂😂

[@steveambrose5580]

The more you read into it the more chopped and shaped is the same as mechanically recovered so as to use minute chicken particles made into a paste to be and held together in breadcrumbs or batter .

[@JanetBrown-px2jn]

From what I read chopped,and formed chicken is different from mechanically reclaimed chicken,and as this particular product was breast meat I don’t think that could really be the same as mechanically reclaimed chicken.

[@pipipip815]

Sometimes a dirty treat is in order. I had some top notch scampi the other day. But just don’t confuse it actual food. Eat it, regret it, forget it.

[@geourgiou]

They look absolutely spot on 😊

[@Stretch2024]

They looked pretty nice tbf

[@GerryLewis-qb4pv]

I'm still trying to come to terms with airfryer cooking. I follow the cooking guidelines, but sometimes the product gets overcooked, or become dry. So sometimes it's a bit hit and miss. I did buy an airfryer cookbook, but even then they still overcook. So I invested into a cooking thermometer. Not a bad purchase. But there again I am old school. It took ne long time to get my head around microwave cooking and induction cookers. But I do love my Sage Cooker.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Thanks Gerry

[@jugglerjim01]

When coating things like this its best to use a bag, stick them in with the flavouring, blow it up a bit and thrn give it a shake. Gives a nice and even coating.

[@nicolavallely8076]

Good video,serve with potato wedges,salad and garlic yummy hope you sleep tonight as they failed the peel seal teast,all the best Gareth

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Yum 😋 cheers Nicola x hope you're well 😀

[@GerryLewis-qb4pv]

To be honest? Chickens don't really have much more than meat to make ' reformed meat '. Unlike beef and pork that have tendons, fat and other bits in the mix. Sure, they may include the chicken jiblet's, but that doesn't bother me too much. To buy a pack of Doritos in my local Co-Op is £2.75. By the time you add a dip? You're looking at around £4 for a snack. A great review 👍👍. Yes, I think I would buy them, reformed meat or not.

[@traciewilliams4630]

Haven't read all msgs but Delta are a take on Doritos in Aldi so basically these are chicken nuggets/pieces coated in Aldis dupe of Doritos 😊

[@lauren6889]

Pretty sure he'd already worked that out for himself, he said as much in the video.

[@traciewilliams4630]

@lauren6889 unfortunately I didn't have time to sit and watch the whole video on this occasion so it skipped some parts obvs missed that part!

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Cheers Peter

[@mark-andrews]

I am not convinced about putting a powder onto an item, then cooking it in an air fryer, any powder that doesn't stick to the product will surely get sucked up into the fan and heating element at the top of the air fryer?

[@stevehopkinson4871]

Me and my good lady love the cosori air fryer did a chicken crown in it last weekend bloody spot on we still have the ninja foodie max but that’s gets used for pressure cooking and slow cooking

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Sounds great!

[@MrLeekicker]

I actually made a chicken fillet burger about a month ago using spicy Doritos instead of breadcrumbs...I wouldn't recommend it, far too salty. Worth a try though, I suppose.

[@leonhughes9014]

[@timjenkins3600]

Hey Gareth, it says made with 100% chicken breast, on the front of both packs. Best wishes, Tim.

[@Ian-xq4rt]

It may be, but it's certainly been formed so suggests it's been mechanically removed (once the main breast is removed for something more expensive), just the look of the meat doesn't appeal to me, it's also melts in the mouth rather than needing to be chewed, basically it's the scraps of a chicken jet washed!!!

[@timjenkins3600]

That's helpful thx, I didn't know that.

[@Ian-xq4rt]

@@timjenkins3600 All good, key is to look at the meat, this is clearly minced, whereas a breast fillet should look, well, like meat :)

[@KevinDiss-n4r]

Don’t fancy them for main meal but ok for party nibbles food Gareth! 👍

[@j.c.wallyti7648]

Hi Gareth ,it is composed with separator meat from chicken.

[@InvestmentAdviceConsultantNI]

I used to work in them factories its low grade chicken they are using that code on the front to can work out the location of the factory the company.

[@PaoloBanke]

You need an old pepper pot for the seasoning to make easy sprinkles. Ye these are a little suspect your braver than me :)). I don't think the chicken even wanted those bits :))).

[@petersmithson4644]

At least Sainsburys and Tesco do similar,they do use proper chicken.Apart from nuggets and goujons which are the usual minced up bits.Great comedy video.

You should try Aldi Roosters Gastro southern fried thigh burgers from the frozen section - not actually burgers but coated chicken thighs.

[@BaldFoodieGuy]

Think I've reviewed them mate.

[@philparkinson462]

I'll give these a swerve I think Gaz. The hot and spicy chicken thigh burgers aren't bad though.

[@simonKagree]

Yeah, DoritoMcNuggets. To be fair, you probably should have done a taste test leaving one from each package unseasoned, to say if you could tell the difference without the spice packets. I think I'd just toss the spices and use something more chicken-flavored, like the seasoning from ramen noodles, or powdered chicken boullion. Might be worth using spices to flavor sour cream, for a dip. I guess it's okay if you really don't want to go to the trouble of breading and frying chicken yourself, like cutting up strips of chicken breast. Mm, now that I'm thinking about it... yeah, with some Coleman's mustard powder stirred into sour cream for dip...
