Aldi has revealed a stupendous new peri-peri chicken range to rival juicy high street favourite Nando’s.
Launching on Tuesday 5th September, shoppers are certain to get peri hot under the collar as the selection includes everything from lemon and herb chicken thighs to scorchingly hot chicken breast sizzlers for the ultimate fake-away feast. What’s more, the range will be the first ever launch to trigger a full branded takeover of the fresh meat specials fixtures across all Aldi stores.
Aldi’s NEW Rooster’s Half Chicken Lemon and Herb (£3.99, 900g) is a deliciously, zesty dish featuring a succulent breast and leg marinated in a delightful and delicious blend of lemon, herbs, and spices. Also available in a medium heat setting(!) for those seeking a little bit more of a kick. What’s more, shoppers can save 54% compared to Nando’s prices.
Need to turn up the heat a little bit? Aldi will have you covered with a purse-friendly alternative to the popular Nando’s Butterfly Chicken. The NEW Chicken Breast Sizzlers (£3.69, 400g) come with a sizzling Hot Peri-Peri sauce. It's also available in lemon & herb recipe for those with more timid taste buds.
Or why not sink your gnashers into Aldi’s NEW Rooster’s Thigh Fillets Medium Peri Peri (£3.29, 360g)? It's an absolutely delectable combination of tender, juicy chicken thigh served with a special signature spice blend, packing just the right amount of heat to tickle your taste buds. Also available in Lemon & Herb, too.
Are you perhaps feeling braver? Well, why not walk into the wing of fire with the Wing Roulette (£4.99, 1.1kg), a lucky dip of marinated chicken wings with spice levels that vary from mild to insanely hot. Put your taste buds to the test and see if you can handle the heat!
Pair your choice of chicken with a massive host of sides inspired by Nando’s classics like: Spicy Rice (1.99, 300g), Mighty Peas (£1.99, 250g), Corn on the Cob (£1.99, 255g), Peri Peri Seasoned Fries (£1.49, 255g) and Rainbow Slaw (£0.79, 300g).
If that’s not saucy enough, try Aldi’s Peri Peri Mayo (£0.99, 170g) blending peri-peri chili spice and creamy mayonnaise, adding a vibrant and tangy kick to any dish.
But it doesn’t end there! Those looking for an alternative to meat, need look no further than Aldi, because Aldi has introduced its brand-new Plant Menu Peri Peri No Chicken (£1.99, 240g). Perfect for vegetarians, these plant-based alternatives will have even the biggest chicken fans guessing.
