A whole chicken is frozen poultry product that includes the entire bird, typically with the skin and bones. It is a versatile protein option popular for roasting, grilling, slow cooking, or cutting into parts for various dishes.
Whole chickens range in weight from about 2.5 to 5 pounds and are valued for their rich flavor and ability to feed multiple people. When roasted or cooked whole, the meat remains tender and juicy, with the skin turning golden and crisp.
Common uses:
Roasted whole with herbs and spices
Grilled or smoked
Slow-cooked in soups or stews
Cut into parts (breast, thighs, wings, drumsticks) for individual recipes
