Coles has levelled up its roast chicken offerings, with the sizzling launch of its limited-edition Peri Peri Hot Roast RSPCA Approved Chicken.

A fresh take on a deli classic, this new roast chicken certainly packs a punch with peri peri infused roasted skin, a flavour-packed brine and spiced herb couscous stuffing. The peri peri flavour profile blends bird’s eye chillis, garlic and sweet paprika with oregano and cumin, before a zesty lemon tang.

Coles general manager meat, deli and seafood, Karen O’Connor, said the limited-edition roast chicken had been developed to help customers bring a bold new flavour into their weeknight meal rotation.

“Our RSPCA approved hot roast chicken is an Aussie classic, so we’re always looking for new ways to delight customers with flavours they’ll love,” said O’Connor.

“It’s our second highest selling product across the country, and last year we sold more than 20 million of our RSPCA approved hot roast chickens. We knew we had to get the flavour profile spot on, with a punchy peri peri hit, a juicy roast finish, and a spiced couscous stuffing that complements all kinds of sides.

“Our new peri peri chicken is the ultimate grab-and-go dinner, bringing big flavour that rivals takeaway taste without the extra effort, whether you’re feeding a crowd at a barbeque or sorting a quick weeknight meal,” she said.

The limited-edition Coles Peri Peri Hot Roast RSPCA Approved Chicken is now available from the deli at Coles stores across Australia, for RRP $13.50, while stocks last.
