Chicken meat for grilling, pan-frying and cooking

Chicken is incredibly versatile and suitable for quick everyday meals as well as a leisurely barbecue. The best cut of chicken depends on how you plan to cook it: chicken breast, cutlets, and sliced ​​chicken usually only require a short cooking time. Chicken legs, drumsticks, and wings stay especially juicy thanks to the skin and bones. A whole chicken is ideal for the oven, grill, or rotisserie.

At Fleischer & der Koch, you can buy different cuts of chicken and choose the perfect one for your dish. The selection includes chicken breasts, chicken schnitzel, chicken strips, Pollo Fino, drumsticks, thighs, wings, rotisserie chicken, and corn-fed chicken.

Buy chicken breast, schnitzel and sliced ​​meat

Chicken breast is a lean and fine-grained cut of meat suitable for pan-frying, grilling, and baking. Prignitzer chicken breast from Germany can be fried whole, cut into strips, or used for skewers. Another option is Athleten's natural chicken breast , which is available in various portion sizes.

For those specifically looking to buy corn-fed chicken breast, Kikok chicken breast is a suitable option. It can be quickly pan-fried, indirectly grilled, or gently cooked in the oven. To ensure the chicken breast remains juicy, it shouldn't be cooked unnecessarily long. At the same time, the poultry meat must be cooked thoroughly inside.

For schnitzel dishes, chicken schnitzel from Germany is available. It can be pan-fried, breaded, or grilled. Chicken schnitzel goes well with potatoes, vegetables, salad, rice, or a simple sauce.

When you need to cook quickly, pre-cut chicken strips are a practical solution. Athleten's plain chicken strips are ideal for stir-fries, curries, salads, or meal prep. Prignitzer's chicken strips can also be combined with vegetables, pasta, rice, or a creamy sauce.

Buy chicken drumsticks and thighs online

Chicken drumsticks have a richer flavor than chicken breasts and remain particularly juicy when fried or grilled. The Prignitzer chicken drumstick is suitable for the oven, grill, and roasting pan. For lovers of corn-fed chicken, the Kikok chicken drumstick is also available.

Drumsticks are the lower parts of the chicken leg. They are easy to portion, simple to season, and can be eaten directly by hand. Therefore, they are perfect for barbecues, family meals, and buffets. You can choose between Michalski Chicken Drumsticks from Germany , Prignitzer Chicken Drumsticks , and Kikok Drumsticks.

Chicken drumsticks and thighs can be seasoned with paprika, garlic, pepper, herbs, or a barbecue marinade. In the oven, the pieces of meat should be placed on the baking sheet or rack with some space between them. This allows the hot air to circulate better and the skin to brown more evenly.

Buy chicken wings and prepare them until crispy.

Chicken wings are among the most popular meats for grilling, baking, and air frying. In our selection, you'll find chicken wings from Germany , Michalski chicken wings , and Kikok chicken wings.

Chicken wings can be seasoned plain, marinated, or glazed with a sauce after cooking. Classic seasonings include salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic. For a bolder flavor, chicken wings can be prepared with a BBQ marinade, a hot sauce, or a honey-mustard mixture.

For crispy skin, pat the wings dry before cooking and space them well apart. Turn them regularly in the oven or on the grill to ensure even cooking on all sides. Poultry must be cooked thoroughly before eating.

Buy Pollo Fino: juicy chicken steak with skin

Pollo Fino is boneless chicken thigh with the skin on. This cut of meat combines succulent thigh meat with the simplicity of a boneless cooking method. Pollo Fino chicken steaks from Germany can be prepared in a pan, on a griddle, or directly on a grill.

Start cooking skin-side down so the fat can slowly render and the skin can crisp up. Then turn the Pollo Fino over and cook until completely done. It can be served whole or sliced ​​after frying. It goes well with salad, grilled vegetables, potatoes, rice, or fresh flatbread.

Buy whole chickens and corn-fed chickens

A whole chicken is suitable for the oven, grill, and rotisserie. With the Prignitz-style grilled chicken, you can prepare a classic roast chicken. The chicken can be seasoned with salt, pepper, paprika, herbs, garlic, and lemon.

For those looking to buy a corn-fed chicken, Kikok offers a whole chicken suitable for grilling and oven cooking. Corn-fed chickens are sometimes fed corn, which can result in variations in the color and taste of the meat, depending on the specific product.

The cooking time for a whole chicken depends on its weight, the temperature, and the cooking method. Before serving, check the thicker parts of the breast and thighs carefully. The meat should be cooked through completely, and the juices should run clear. A suitable meat thermometer is recommended for reliable control.

How to properly store and thaw chicken meat

Chicken is a perishable food and must be kept refrigerated at all times. After delivery, please follow the instructions on the packaging and the respective product page. Fresh chicken should be refrigerated immediately. Frozen chicken should be kept in the freezer until ready to use.

Frozen chicken should thaw slowly in the refrigerator. Place the meat in a sufficiently large container to catch any escaping liquid and prevent it from coming into contact with other foods. Once thawed, the chicken should be prepared promptly according to the product instructions.

Do not wash raw chicken under running water, as splashes can get onto work surfaces and other foods. After handling, thoroughly clean your hands, knives, cutting boards, and work surfaces. If possible, use a separate cutting board for raw poultry.

Safely prepare chicken meat

Poultry must be cooked thoroughly. The exact cooking time depends on the cut of meat, its weight, the starting temperature, and the preparation method. Thin cutlets and sliced ​​meat require less time than drumsticks or a whole chicken. Therefore, do not rely solely on a general cooking time estimate.

A meat thermometer makes it easier to check the internal temperature, especially with whole chickens and cuts of meat with bones. Measure at the thickest part without touching the bone directly. Also, refer to the preparation and safety instructions on the respective product page.
